I loved this book so so very much. The writing felt so personal and the book as a whole was a emotional roller coaster, I cried and teared up more than once. As for the characters I found a deep connection to Evelyn and Harry. The different concepts to the many relationships Especially with her and Harry (definitely by far my favourite character) and some of the upsetting reality with domestic abuse :( I was absolutely engrossed in and adored it. Probably one of my favourite part was the relationships and exploring them. As for the other very present and important theme I felt provoked so much feelings where of the idea of women’s body image and societies image on young women at that time and how we are still faced with that problem. It just was so heart breaking The reality of how judgmental society can be towards women and the LGBTQIA+ community especially in the public eye in the era of time and how that got in the way of people being true and happy. Beautiful, heart wrenching book I am obsessed and definitely recommend to others <3
