I loved how complex and human all the characters were but somehow at the same time they were so over the top and fun to read! I think this is the first book I’ve read that really shows what it was like during and immediately after the Covid 19 lockdowns and the psychological effects it had on people. 

I also really liked how the ending was satisfying but didn’t tie everything up in a bow!
