The Vanishing Season

It's been several days since I finished this one and I'm still not sure what I think. it was gorgeous and lyrically haunting. I responded to it emotionally. I never could predict it which I love and rarely find. I think the ending was my problem. It was incredibly unsatisfying. I'm not sure how I feel about the implications of that ending. This book also wanted to be a statement on female friendship, but ultimately tried to elevate a toxic friendship. It was cringier than expected
