I wish I hadn't read Bellies so fast but I couldn't put it down. Everything about it is just phenomenal. Easily one of my favourite books that I have read in a long time.
While incredibly sad and hard to read at times, the writing is so captivating and the characters you come to care for so easily.
A book that will be hard to forget but easy to love.

It was a very sad book. I'm not sure I could get past that.

Kind of mid icl
Edit:
On reflection it was definitely mid.
Tom was annoying
Best part was their time in Malaysia
But honestly the book was boring & I thought it was going to go somewhere super interesting and push forth, but it didn’t.
Powered through for my book club otherwise I would definitely DNF or even DNS
