Writing style is one I'm tired of--the back and forth of timelines, it adds nothing to the story

I stuck with it as long as I could (50-100 pages is my limit) got to about 200 pages and just skimmed the rest, so tedious and boring and everything repeated over and over

I guess it's really a whodunit but I didn't really care, so borrrring!

This was a fun book to read, leaving the reader thinking "What is going on here"? from the very 1st page. Liz is a pediatrician and when her friend comes in with her baby, they realize something terrible happened, and the mother is covering something up, but what can it be? Then their tight knit group of friends are all left wondering if this so called perfect mother is not so perfect after all.

With all the signs of depression, at first you think that Jess really hurt her baby. She envisions herself hurting Betsey and then worrying if she really did it, but the further you get into the book, you realize she was just a stressed out mom like most of us are, needed a little time to herself, and made a mistake in her judgement and will do whatever it takes to protect her family.

I thought the book ended here, and got a little impatient as it drew on a little further, but in the end, it was a perfectly good way to complete this book. This was a great first read for me from this author. Thank you NetGalley for my free download.
