Hard to get Into submitted by smgop on June 14, 2021, 11:27am This book was too disjointed for me. I tried.

Multiple Narrators submitted by JJM.Deucher on July 16, 2023, 7:24am If you like stories that shift between multiple perspectives this is a winner. Particularly enjoyed how you didn't know exactly how everyone was connected from the start. If that writing style isn't your cup of tea I wouldn't recommend the book as it might be hard to get into.
