dark emotional hopeful reflective sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.5

Reading this while in Charlottesville was such a rewarding experience, I’ve read very few main characters like this (with so much depth & nuance & who felt so painfully real) and this book was doing so much even though it’s so short! Already want to read it again
