Evelyn retelling her story to Monique was interesting. I spent the whole time reading it switching between liking and disliking Evelyn for her actions in the past.
Im glad that in the end she got better and i feel sorry for her, for enduring almost every loss a person can experience.
All in all it was a good story, but I found myself skimming some section, especially the ones from the present, I just wasn't as interested in Monique's life, as in Evelyn's.

Thoughts:
The more I thought about the story as a whole, the more my rating dropped lol but If you would’ve asked me while I was reading the story, I would’ve given it a 5*. I feel like the ending was somehow… lackluster. I don’t know why to be honest, probably because I was just not ever invested in Monique as a character. Or maybe I just expected so much.
Connor’s name just reminds me of Connor Murphy but I love the way motherhood was portrayed.
Evelyn was such an interesting character to read. I devoured this book because of her.
I don’t like Celia that much but the nice parts of their relationship was pretty cute.
