5.0

I was pretty scared to pick this one up because, while I loved the first Victor Lavalle I read, this one centers around postpartum depression which I am currently experiencing. However, I can’t imagine giving this less than 5 stars. Parts of it were triggering, but following Emma and Apollo’s journey was well worth it.
