I was unsure about this one for the first ~ 100 pages, but then I was pulled in and found it very engaging, real, and emotional. I loved a lot of the characters - Julia sucks - and the ending had a huge emotional impact on me. There were some chunks that feel a bit slow and mundane but that is also part of what made it so real and relatable 

Unfassbar packend geschrieben und die Ähnlichkeit zu Little women unverkennbar. Familiendynamiken ganz wunderbar erfasst & herzzerreißend <3
