🌊 The novella "The Most" by Jessica Anthony offers a compelling exploration of an unhappy marriage set in the 1950s. The alternating perspectives between the husband and wife provide unique insight into the couple’s relationship. The themes of betrayal and regret are woven through the story, and a tennis move 🎾 adds an interesting layer of symbolism. Despite the tragic undertones, there is also sense of hopefulness in the story. Kathleen's character defies expectations, showcasing a surprising level of self-awareness and power. For a short story her character is very well developed. Overall, this novella successfully navigates complex emotions and relationships within a concise format, making it a worthwhile read even for those, like me, who typically prefer longer novels. 

🌟 Would I recommend it? Yes! It is definitely worth picking up.
