I loved the whole thing of a background character in someone else's life having their own story and all the tiny and big connections between them all
Even while covering such a wide spectrum of experiences every section felt super personal and had its own voice and I feel it's one of those books that makes you feel like you understand the world better u know I will definitely continue to think about it

This story is so smart. Incredible.
I cried a few times throughout and would recommend reading trigger warnings however. It's pretty intense in parts.

I loved getting to know all the different characters and learn about them. I really took my time to read this book as it wasn’t an “easy read”, however I really do feel like it’s an important one! Some stories were heavier than others and therefore took me longer to read than others.
