I wish I could give 4.5 stars. I will absolutely read anything that Nathan Hill writes. This book reminded me of an intricate mosaic with each bead or tile placed meticulously and purposefully. But I had a hard time with the way the last 100 pages were constructed.

Took me awhile to read it but a very good deep dive into relationships and who we are as people / how our pasts define us and often replay themselves in our futures even when we try so hard not to be like our parents or to heal or be different from our upbringings.

I truly liked this book, minus one star because the constant deep dives into various subjects (social media algorithms for example) felt tedious at times, but I can appreciate they served a purpose in the story.

Just a really good deep dive into relationships and life and love.
