I think this book was not marketed correctly. It was centered as a romance but the romance to be was just a minor subplot. It revolves around Grace Porter a 28 almost 29 year old woman who has her phd in astronomy but learns that she doesn’t have a sure footing when school no longer revolves around her schedule. The trip she took to Vegas, courtesy of her father and step mom, lead Grace to get drunk married with Yuki, a waitress and radio host who lives in New York. Grace’s sexual identity isn’t discussed as much as her mental health state but I feel like this is such an important novel when it comes to advocating for yourself and seeking help. I think some of the telling and not showing could have been fixed & the repetition of certain traits could also have been edited but I enjoyed this overall.
