This wasn't a light read, warm, or cozy, as the cover or title may imply. There's beauty there, but it's hard-won, and I don't envy the lives these characters must lead to eventually grasp it. I'm having a hard time overlooking the types of cold, damaged, or unloving parents present sometimes in books like this right now. But life does contain such people, and pretending otherwise (or writing all such characters as saints) would be untruthful, and would diminish true human goodness when it's found. There is goodness here, but it's not guaranteed, and it doesn't come without honest effort.
Graphic: Suicidal thoughts and Suicide attempt
A major character suffers from depression and attempts suicide halfway through the novel.
