Wonderful sapphic YA full of angst and yearning. Amnesia plot with a second chance spin for love (romantic and familial). I wanted to hold Nora and squeeze her so tightly every scene she was in. Stevie was very strong-willed and didn’t easily fall for peer pressure, even if it would’ve been easier for her. We only get Stevie’s pov, but we get snippets of Nora’s via letters she writes in a notebook. It’s heartbreaking and inspiring. And, as always, Natalie Naudus is amazing with the narration.
