Broadly, the book is well written. The storyline flows smoothly once you get past about 30-35%, which is a mix of current time and flashbacks. It's not my favorite thing in a book, but it wasn't awful. Honestly, this is my first read by this author, so I can't speak on whether or not this fluidity and writing style is a constant. If I were to base my review on just this, it would be a 4 star read.
I just couldn't get past the sudden change of heart that Jupiter had after 14 years and MANY other women. He didn't even have contact with Marnie. All of a sudden, after all that time, you want her back? Then to pull the manipulation that he did. Disrespectful of her wants, his constant pestering felt like she gave in just to get him to stop.
