natalie got impregnated by a sauce baster.

im still mid-read but i NEED to talk abt ch.24.
ARE WE DEADASS. natalie over here asked the fund for the 5 mil house cause of caleb and doug is asking HER to have more babies with HIM in return????? she didnt ask to marry a manchild after like 6 months of engagement or whatever doug raised him wrong into a spoiled and entitled boy. also who asks their daughter-I-L to have children with your son?? make that make sense

lwk scaring me about growing up ngl. they reallllly portrayed natalies unhappiness in marriage and motherhood well in a sophisticated method of show-dont-tell. i can see when she gaslights herself to fit into societys expectation and tells herself that she isnt good enough. her OWN MOTHER got in her head. calebs probably gonna have an epiphany and become a man soon but it still doesnt excuse his immaturity rn.

istg burke is gonna be the future shakespeare, like the next generation is gonna STUDY this book
its actly sooo good; the character is so stereotypical but also not at the same time. the language is the best ive ever seen: the character has so much depth that gets slowly revealed as you read on and the events are so suspenseful and emotional at all the right points. idk how a person can physically write this good.

ive just finished part one and the start was really good !! i usually hate starting new books because the first 5 chapters are boring (ali hazelwood im looking at you but the rest of the chapters are top tier chefs kiss so i forgive you). ive seen some reviews saying "its gone too far left that its ended up right" (whatever that means) but rn all im seeing is amazing character depth and development.
