Status Updates From Salem Falls

I feel like Jodi Picoult wrote this assuming it would become a movie. So many characters and perspective switched every few paragraphs….. I get what she was going for, but I the backstory of Addie is just too much, the idea could have stood on its own just with the story of Jack.
Also, Salem Falls and the girls are witches? Really?

I am emotionally exhausted, I hate everyone except Jack and Addie, and Jodi Picoult will be hearing from my attorney. 😩
