I think if I reread this book in the future it could be 5 stars. It was beautifully written and tackled important topics very well, but I wish we had spent more time with most of the characters. It was short, slow paced, and from multiple perspectives, which all together sometimes made for a hard read. But the thread that tied all the characters together was very compelling and made me want more. I'm glad I read it but gosh I wanted it to be longer and I think it would be more poignant as a reread.
