Diabolical narration spoiled good story
Just don’t get it! As an author, why would you let such a poor narrator loose on your book? And if you can’t do accents, just read the darned thing out! Real shame because it caused the characters to lose credibility.
Aside from that, the basic premise of the story was believable and consequently very disturbing.
Sadly some fundamental factual content was askew - not least of all having a social worker be the one to personally teach a child to read and write (bizarre!?!)
If you can ignore the flaws though, it’s a free read!🤷🏼♀️

Interesting/Twisted
This is an engaging story from the start, takes a few very interesting somewhat twisted turns but is intruiging. The narrators voice/accent are quite annoying initially but then actually become endearing. Enjoyed right to the finish and will search for more by same author.

Rather strange story
This was a very different and sometimes rather strange story….often wondering where this was going as it changes several times…but it kept me entertained throughout.
Good narration

Just ok
I thought the book was slow to get going but they had to develop the history I guess. I didn’t like marta at all I think she wants to cause harm and boy does she. The other girls life is torn apart by her and she has no comeuppance

strange story
Overall I enjoyed this book but thought that some of the plot choices were only half developed and led you in a strange direction. It was if the author thought about developing one plot line then changed her mind half way through. Lots of missed opportunities. I thought the end was very weak and ill conceived.
I didn't mind the narrator
although I know other people criticised her.

Just goes on and on
This started off as quite a good story but my god it dragged...could have finished several chapters earlier. Every time i thought it was done, nope, some other subplot that didnt really get going. Glad i didn't pay for it. Also the welsh accent was shockingly bad.
