Ugh this is probably going to be an unpopular opinion but I did not like this book. I stopped reading this about 50% of the way in and don't plan to pick it up again. I stopped reading and picked back up because I got distracted during my book clubs month (august 2020) of picking this book but I can officially lay this one to rest. I just realize these contemporary style books are just not my thing and that is okay. Though I did not like this one, I still would recommend someone to read this if you are into a suburbia style standalone books with stereotypical neighbors/characters with life obstacles.
Though Celeste Ng was spot on with how the shaker heights area is because I am near Cleveland/shaker heights area I just was bored from the very beginning of this book. I live within it so I personally don't want to read about it when I live within it on a daily basis. grimace face I just know now this book was not for me since I am gravitated towards sci-fi and fantasy style books, I figured I would give it a try because I saw the TV series. I'd be curious on the TV series but I have a feeling its not going to be for me either.
