I was surprised by how much I ended up enjoying this. The Alina narrative was by far my favorite and the strongest. The Alice POV felt slightly unnecessary and some of the autism representation made me feel a little uncomfortable. While there is a wide spectrum, autism is not something that needs to be fixed. And after living with someone with a debilitating disability, perhaps I’m a bit sensitive to disability caregiver narratives šŸ˜‚ #netgalley
