4.5

Beautiful and emotional novel on an author dealing with the death of her father, family secrets and dysfunction, writer’s block and career stagnation, and an old academic rival from college she previously/maybe still carries a torch for. A story of dealing with grief and complicated views of one’s parents, I found myself crying with the main characters and cheering her on towards success and happiness.
