I connected with Libby, the main character, on an emotional level throughout the whole book. I loved how Camille weaved in different life struggles and different perspectives on each struggle from each character. She’s an amazing writer and this book had me in tears at the end but for a good reason. It’s a great reminder that repression of emotions turns to depression. Get out those feelings, even if it’s hard, even if you’re scared, and even if you cry. Get it out. Thank you Camille for such an amazing book and an amazing reminder that life is hard but we don’t have to go through it alone and we don’t always have to be happy go lucky every second of our days.
