Thoughts 💭
Have you ever come across a piece of writing that challenges your moral values? In my opinion, that's a sign of a truly talented writer. When they know how to walk a thin line between right and wrong, captivating their audience and keeping them engaged till the very end. Ali did a fantastic job at pushing those boundaries with both her characters and the reader. 

I enjoyed reading from the POV of all the women; Kaya, Estella and Bec. It was interesting how different they were from one another and how my opinions of them changed as the story progressed, especially Estella. They were all harbouring their secrets and the way the brilliantly executed connections came together made for a satisfying conclusion.

The School Run is out now and is the perfect read for fans of dramatic and domestic suspense thrillers like Big Little Lies.
