Is it too early to call my book of the year? Maybe?

While it did admittedly take me a little while to sink in to the style of the novel and the sharpness of the protagonist, once I was in, I was hooked. 

The premise was so original, the characters beautifully well rounded and the plot absolutely absurd. I just couldn't stop thinking about it. Exceptionally clever writing as there were so many layers and full circle moments throughout the story.

I think what I found most memorable about the novel is the way the darkness and light worked together to not just entertain me as a reader but also make me think and reflect on the many themes of marriage, womanhood, identity and weddings. 

Wishing this one was a book club pick right now as there is just so much to unpack. 

I purchased my copy from Dillons Bookshop, South Australia.
