The premise of this book intrigued me, and I was very happy that Baron delivered on a great read!
The author did a wonderful job making Isla's struggles with anxiety and depression real for the reader. I feel like people will appreciate how this book makes them feel seen or how it makes them more empathetic human beings. This book is just so tender and is a great pic for a cozy fall read.
That being said, Baron also included a few good plot twists that keep me really interested in the storyline, but I won't spoil them here! I'll definitely read more of her books in the future.
Thanks to Alcove Press for sending me an e-arc on NetGalley.
