• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

4.5

I expected this to be a funny read when in fact it got really deep. There were funny moments, but it got into molestation, abuse, and medical issues that women face (endometriosis). Nora had to be so many girls for her mother’s selfish reasons and that truly sucks. It was great to see Nora start to find herself, figure out who she wants to be, and be brave/strong like she always told herself to be. She’s stronger than she gives herself credit for. 

4.5 ⭐️ I found out that this is supposed to turn into a series with Millie Bobby Brown and I can totally see that! This book would be better on tv as the book was broken into sections the way you would a script.
