I unfortunately was not able to read this book before the archive date. Someday I hope to read and review it for my blog.

'Life is deep - dive in.'

Nora Hargrove was named after a romance novelist. She lives in a horrible apartment, hates her job handling calls about insurance claims, helps abused dogs adjust to human kindness and doesn't do close relationships, or even real friendships. She has been estranged from her mother since a traumatic incident that occurred when she was a teenager, but has never shared the reason why with her father.

Eager to avoid summer weekends with her family, she accepts an invitation from her old college roommate to buy a full share in a summer rental at Dewey Beach. Thinking that she can have solitude there, she accepts. But it turns out that the reality of the summer is far different to what she envisaged.

I have to admit that this is yet another book I was attracted to by the cover. And I am so glad! Full Share is one of those insidious books that slowly seduces and enmeshes the reader in the lives of the characters. There are characters who will tug at your heartstrings, characters you will love to hate, and the full spectrum in between. There is so much more to this book than I expected.

NOTE: Full Share contains several references to drug use. Full Share contains one reasonably explicit sex scene, but it is not crude.

Thank you to Brunswick House via Netgalley for providing a digital copy of Full Share by Eliza Freed for review. All opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.
