Also, Leilani's prose is just masterful. I love how light and bouncy and observant and satirical it is.

Also, I read the translated to Spanish version and I think that didn't help either. Latin American readers, we need something that lets us know if the translation is from Spain. I swear it's truly painful at times. Ironically, it's definitely harder than reading in English which is not my mother tongue.

Where it started and where it ended, not at all what I was expecting.
I love messy characters and this book is FULL of messy characters.
Made me reflect on how we really don't know what is happening in the lives of people around us.
