3.5 stars. Had it's moments but definitely seemed to peter out.

This is a thoughtful and sensitive exploration of love, growing up, cheating and abortion. That the narrators are biased adds a deep layer to the story and as always Bennetts writing is pure poetry. I would've loved to have know what happened to the characters in the end though.
emotional medium-paced

This was a gorgeous book that will stay with me for a long time.

I need to sit with this book for a little. I wish I had a book club to discuss this with, especially the last few sentences.
