The Betrayals
by Fiona Neill
Rosie and Lisa are best friends and their families are close. Or they were close until one day the two families are torn apart. Lisa has an affair with Rosie's husband, Nick. After that, they no longer speak.
This novel is told from multiple characters. It's eight years after the affair started and you see how that moment of betrayal has changed people. Lisa and Nick are still together. Rosie doesn't trust another serious relationship and goes through meaningless flings. Max is in school, still feeling like he should help take care of his sister. His sister, Daisy has anxiety and OCD. It was bad eight years ago when her family fell apart and now she is in the middle of it happening again.
What I did like about this book was the depth of Daisy and just getting into her anxiety and OCD. And how the family being torn apart affected everyone.
What I did't care as much was it seemed a little long. Towards the end I was wondering where this was going and then after all that the ending didn't feel complete.
