pickThanks to Helen for putting on my radar!
Totally absorbing, very real and heart wrenchingly sad- but you can‘t look away.
Stellar debut novel.
pickWe meet Rachel as she's sitting in the passenger seat of the family car. Tom, her husband, is driving. Their two young children in the back. They had been at Tom's parents that afternoon, the drive home is just routine. Or it is until her husband apologises and runs the car off the road.
This wasn't an easy read yet I could have read it in one sitting. The grief and shock represented is very real, raw and ugly to look at.
pickWow - the best fiction book I‘ve read this year (should have been on the #wpf25 list).
Rachel and Tom live a seemingly normal, average life with their two kids, until the day Tom swerves his car off the road with the intention of killing himself and them.
The story veers between ‘before‘ and ‘after‘ - should Rachel have known beforehand, and how she copes afterwards.
Difficult to read but impossible to put down.
