I'm struggling with what to say about this one. It's received lots of hype and positive reviews, and I did find myself compelled to finish it and figure out who actually committed the murder. But the story is pretty confusing and convoluted. And the writing was sometimes beautiful but also sometimes in need of editing.
Thirteen-year-old Duchess and her little brother, Robin, are at the center of the book. Their mother, Star, is a good person but has a problem with alcohol. So Duchess steps up and takes care of her brother. This is the beginning. From here, people die - in fact, multiple people end up dying. I give up. I'm not even going to try to describe this plot.
Recommend this one .... maybe. June
