I loved this so much!!! I didn't want to put it down at any point despite it not being a "page turner" in the way you normally think when you hear the phrase.

Very heartbreaking and beautiful and especially important for those that are also Maame. I appreciate that George subtly wrote herself in the story (not in ways that you would think at first). Twenties are so hard.
