Friends and Strangers

The multiple viewpoints kept the story engaging but also made me wonder how much planning went into balancing each character's voice. Did the narrative structure evolve during writing?

I loved how it wrapped up the characters' arcs, but the final chapters felt rushed. Was this a deliberate choice to leave some questions open or just pacing?

The depiction of wealth and social dynamics felt very authentic. I wonder if real-life experiences or observations influenced the author’s portrayal of these environments.
