This was really good. It offers a very real but unique telling of the aftermath of what happens to a family after a child goes missing. It’s told through multi pov, several years later when hope makes a surprise appearance. I can
recommend this one.

tragicomedy at it's finest. I'm surprised this is Jimenez's debut novel because it is expertly crafted. all the praise for it mentions how Jiménez deftly weaves together dark and heavy subjects with light hearted hilarity and family dramatics & they're correct! It is difficult to combine two moods that contrast to this degree but Jimenez proves it is possible! I'm excited to dive into their short stories at some point in the future because I imagine her snappy voice suits the medium very well.
Moderate: Domestic abuse and Physical abuse
Minor: Child abuse, Death, and Pedophilia
