I enjoyed this book, but it felt confusing. Sometimes things are referenced which didn't happen in previous chapters, which gave me a sense of having missed something which wasn't there. I enjoyed the links between the characters whether through the plot or family. Reading it in 2022 after most of Covid felt quite fortunate, I'm glad I wasn't reading about death hoteles during Lockdown!
