Now 7 years later I started this one wondering maybe I was fascinated by the first book way too much since I had different standards.
I was wrong. It took me a day to finish this one. The writing style is beautiful and makes you see from the eyes of the main character and feel her every emotion.
I think it must be a hard task to keep the reader hooked when you’re writing about such a challenging subject and miss. Glasgow did pretty well.
One thing that I love both about You’d be home now and Girl in pieces, is that the ending is not like a fairy tail. It’s realistic. It’s not necessary sad but it’s not hero-ish either. The characters make mistakes, the mistakes you think that are gonna mess them up even more and it happens but you’ll learn it’s ok. I suggest this to anyone who feels like they’re facing a deadend. There are triggers and tears, even with that, I felt I’d be fine to panic a little.
Definitely a favorite!
