I loved the structure of this short story collection! It felt like we were truly just seeing snapshots of Fiona and Jane’s lives, but still able to figure everything and identify how they’ve changed over the years. Seeing their friendship wax and wane was also interesting, and I think it shows how friendships develop over a lifetime. I’d probably want to read the physical book in the future since I read it this first time via audiobook. Makes me want to check what else (if anything) the author has available!
