Both main characters are well developed, appealing, and flawed (as all humans are.) The secondary characters are interesting and create a community that feels welcoming.
* Rachel has ME/CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) which is presented realistically and compassionately.

Although there are no direct examples of Antisemitism in the book, it is referred to a couple of times by the characters. Also, one of the characters describes her experience escaping Germany during the Holocaust.hanz's review against another edition
