I loved this book as well!! I agree with a lot of your thoughts. I thought Cinnamon’s email (video) was sweet, but I left wanting more after so much build up! I also thought Audre totally got off the hook with that financial mess. I was rooting for her, but gosh that did feel a bit too unbelievable/“tied up in a bow” at the end. I would love a spin off book on Charley!

I really enjoyed The Thoroughbreds…more than the first book, even.

To answer a few of your discussion questions:

I think Audre definitely got off too easy, and honestly, it’s kind of unbelievable from the get go that she was so careless with the money management team switch.

I also think Mav was crossing lines and a good counselor. I think he was craving connection and found a kindred spirit in Charley. I kept thinking if they’d just explain the connection to her Dad, it might make things easier with East and the others.

You didn’t mention Rhode. He’s the character that I love to dislike in both books, and who totally seems like could be a real person in all his awkwardness.

Are you in my Amazon search right now, because I was literally picking another book for my next read and this email pops up... 👀👯‍♀️
