Loved this. Read on the recommendation of thisstoryaintover. Amazing writing, really interesting story and great characters. I loved the way coming of age and relationships were portrayed. Everything felt really authentic and relatable, despite the lives of the characters being incredibly unrelatable. This felt very much like a book for me, very my taste. A new favourite and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

The first half or so was fantastic and I thought I’d be giving this 5 stars, but the second half was messy and not in a good way. There were a lot of threads the author had been weaving in the first half that never got continued, and themes I thought could have been done in a more impactful way. A bit disappointed but I still had a mostly good time reading this.
