The Lido by Libby Page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.
 On page this book should deliver everything that I usually love, but it didn't. Overall it was extremely dull and the characters were one-dimensional. Additionally, I found the way the author included Rosemary's backstory was not well done. The short chapters and the constant change of POV's weren't helping. One chapter we are in the present with Kate and in the next one we are suddenly in the past with Rosemary and George. It was annoying to readjust every second chapter. For some reason other characters were sprinkled throughout the story, e.g. Ahmed learning for exams, the couple Frank and Jermaine, that one pregnant woman. I fail to see how there small cameos are relevant to the story
