Wanted more from the ending. And was totally disengaged when author would reference “wrinkled mid-40s hands” and suggest 11 year old siblings run off to play on playgrounds and take turns on the slide. Nah those are going to be moody preteens on their phones. The ending felt really out of touch with anyone over the age…30?

It was a bit too fast at moments but I did enjoy it quite a bit. So sweet and bitter and all around everything

Fascinating book that really made me think! I enjoyed it although I did feel the ending was lacking substance and felt rushed. Minor spoiler-Loved how all the stories and characters wove into each other even though many didn't outright meet each other! Also loved the sapphic representation!
