Well this book was so dang good! 
I couldn’t tell you how many times I cried over this book and I feel so bad for Emmy she’s never seen but Daniel sees her. What I’m really mad abt is how you don’t find out what happens after Joey goes to rehab but I also kinda like how it needed with the paper. I would definitely recommend this book. And read it again. So over all I’m rating this book 5 stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hope this helped🖤

In classic Glasgow fashion, this was deeply moving, 'quiet' in the sense that its themes weigh heavy and the drama lies in all that is not said. A sobering reminder, too, of how this country fails anyone struggling with addiction. I think it would be interesting to read in tandem with Heather Demetrios' LITTLE UNIVERSES. Recommend, for sure.

(Also it shout-outs theatre teachers and that is always a WIN in my book!!!)
