enjoyable themes and good voice work
Revisado: 05-04-23
I really liked the themes and story telling. It all felt mythic and ancient as well as futuristic. Seems to be in line with her other work I've read.

Caroline’s mattress had nothing to do with her untimely death at the age of 28—this, she wants Tempur-Pedic’s market research representative to know. But as she reflects on her first ever mattress purchase and their interview progresses, Caroline dives into the circumstances and decisions that led her and Nicholas—her boyfriend, 10 years her senior and prone to sleeping on the floor—to that particular bed in that particular shopping plaza.

Hauntingly Tragic, Tragically Normal
Revisado: 10-08-22
Hauntingly tragic, tragically normal. This well paced story of young woman's life is told through the creative lens of market research interviews. Ones conducted after the consumer has passed away! It felt like something out of Black Mirror.
From the first paragraph I was hooked. It was enjoyable, amusing, relatable. As I started to understand where the story was heading I felt sad, determined to understand something I feared I already knew too well. Her stories weren't my own but the feelings were all too familiar. I let her emotional journey crash over me like waves. Experiencing and releasing old wounds I'd forgotten were there. And ultimately, gloriously, left with a message of loving yourself. Not as a self-help platitude but as a reality.
I can't promise it will resonate with everyone the way it did with me, but I can't imagine anyone not enjoying it.

A Clearly Told Classic
Revisado: 02-18-22
Not one of the best or worst Sherlock Holmes adventures, Yet I can't help but smile every time I return to it. This isn't my favorite reading, and I sometimes struggle to distinguish between the characters. But it's otherwise well read and enjoyable.

A thought provoking journey
Revisado: 01-30-22
I enjoyed this more than I initially thought I would. It's worth it to make it to the end and I look forward to the rest of the trilogy. It raises interesting questions and keeps you interested. Highly recommend!
