Review:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of my favourite authors I must admit I struggled with this at the start, and only really got into 50 % of the way in. I didn’t find a character I liked and found the story went on too long about each hen. There are plenty of clues in the run up to the death but I didn’t see any of them. The twists just kept coming from about 3\/4 way in, the way the hens lives were interwoven, each not knowing the connections.\u00a0 Fen’s history providing a side story which seem unnecessary. This book is about friendships, past history and body issues. How these can shape a person life, how the cruelty of words can hurt to the core and live long in the soul.

If I had one thing that confused me, it would be the hen that fell, no explanation of how she is one minute on the rocks in a place that no one could survive to suddenly being ok.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Definition: Hen is referring to the girls at the hen party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
