Starting to understand that Claire Keegan is the type of author that falls in this concept of "the girls that get it, get it, the girls that don't, don't." Unfortunately, I don't think I get it.

However, this made me do some research about The Magdalene Laundries in Ireland, a topic I've heard of before, but didn't knew much about. That alone would have made it worth it to read the book.
