I've learned to not expect a lot from Amazon First Reads, but this was slightly better than previous books I've read. The concept of the story was interesting, with a seemingly intrusive older woman trying to fix the lives of the people around her, including her next door neighbor, a woman recovering from a scandalous divorce and collapse of the life she knew. As with most other First Reads, the writing wasn't great and certain elements were predictable, but there were definitely some twists (although they seemed a bit shoehorned in). Overall, a good read for a plane ride.
Frustrating until the ending works out perfectly
I can say that through most of the novel I did not like Markie. I also had no clue the real story behind Mrs. Saint was so deep and complicated. No one in this story is perfect and their imperfections are life altering. These are real people with real problems and real love. Good stuff.
