This book reminded me of a lot of people I grew up with if I’m being honest šŸ˜…

I thought it was a very interesting read and liked the environmental tie in but there was a LOT going on throughout the book and it was hard to follow at times.

I did not enjoy the audiobook.  It felt like the narrator was condescending to the characters.

This book felt like quite a departure from her other works, which, for me, was welcome. It was very affirming and gentle.
