I picked up Table for Two mainly because it’s set in Delaware, which isn’t something you see often in fiction. Unfortunately, that was the most compelling part for me. I didn’t really connect with the characters—they didn’t feel believable or engaging—and the plot lost steam halfway through. It became repetitive and dragged to the finish. An okay read, but not one I’d recommend unless the Delaware setting is a big draw for you.
