The End of the Day by Bill Clegg

What a wild ride. Upon hearing about the release of a new book by Bill Clegg, who I am aware is well-thought of author, I knew I should check it out. The story follows the relationship between two friends and then various other players in the scenario. Jackie and Dana are childhood friends in New England and find themselves drawn apart at the beginning of adulthood for reasons that don't become very clear until the very end of the book. The relationship is so deftly crafted by Clegg and the plot is engaging and thoughtful. I was intrigued by the character development and Lupita's character arc was so interesting and engaging that I found myself finishing the second half of the book in one night. It was slower to begin than some books but still beautifully written and easy to slip into whenever I would pick it up, but I also find myself thinking about the characters after having finished the book last night. Highly recommend.

of everything that's happened that da, this is what instigates tears: the transformation of something she wanted so badly--a happy marriage, a loving husband, a family--into something hateful.
