The reason this book wasn't a 5 star read was the greek chorus/Mothers portion of the story. I didn't love it, and I didn't connect with it at all. It was confusing, and really didn't offer much to the story. I felt like it was a good idea, but wasn't fully fleshed out.
I highly recommend.

Minor: Suicide, Cursing, Child abuse, Infertility, Sexual assault, Sexual content, and Infidelity
Includes references to abortion, suicide, teenage alcohol and drug use, sexual abuse of a child, and difficulty conceiving. All of these are addressed sensitively, not graphic or sensationalized. Infidelity is a significant plot point, but the sexual experiences are not graphically depicted.
