I didn’t know if I would be ready to read a book about Covid in 2025, it still feels so soon. In my mind the past 5 years has been one long continuation of the same long, strange year.
I should have expected to scream JODI WHAT THE HELL at some point during this book but I was absolutely not ready for it when the twist came, and I certainly did yell at Jodi while doing my makeup and listening to this audiobook. This book was a journey and I loved so much of it, even the hard parts. It reminded me of the pain and fear that I and so many in my life felt so deeply in 2020, but it was somehow weirdly refreshing to journey through this story while confronting those latent, hidden feelings.
