I didn't love this as much as Amy Waldman's first novel, The Submission, which I was crazy for and felt didn't get as much attention as it deserved. In this one, I thought the characters were well-developed and complex, and the premise was good but I felt like it took Parveen way too long to figure out what was going on, and the whole thing kind of dragged for me. And that ending! Not my favorite.

Thank you to Little, Brown and Company and NetGalley for the advanced copy!
