I admit that asked for this book based on the sapphic description. The relationships tiptoed up to the edge of menage a trois, and added a "will they, won't they?" element to the book.
Overall, this complex, sometimes convoluted novel kept me returning to previous pages to see what I'd missed. Multiple times I was sure that I'd identified the culprit, only to find, at the end, that I was wrong...or was I?

This was not an easy read, and I was reluctant to enter the hidden world of the human beings who support our insatiable desire for more "stuff," IMMEDIATELY. Like many of the systems that provide those of us who have some bit of privilege, I'd prefer not to know about the hidden side of the mega-stores, willfully ignoring the human beings on whose shoulders this privilege rests.
But they are US and deserve our acknowledgement and respect. I will never look at a carefully stacked sweaters in the same way.
