i want to talk about the ending. at first i was disappointed, asking myself how the author could think that's a good place to stop. but i read it back and there's more to it:

"The best wedges of words were the ones my eight-year-olds wrote: I like her face. With her I am happy. I wished I’d never learned more advanced grammar and could only make sentences like that. It would give me an excuse to say them aloud."
Anyway. This book didn't really go anywhere and I'm not sure the characters are very good in any real way, but I enjoyed the narration for sure. It's interesting and I'd recommend it to some people, but not everyone.
Graphic: Infidelity, Cursing, and Biphobia

This book is not going to be your cup of tea if you want action but if you like nice dialogues and iconic characters who are all totally flawed but also totally awesome, give it a try.
Moderate: Alcohol, Gaslighting, Homophobia, Lesbophobia, Medical content, Misogyny, and Sexual content
