5.0

An absolute page-turner. Silvey had me in the palm of his hand, laughing, crying, and so invested in the protagonist. A heartwarming story, set against a backdrop of cruelties and brutal injustices of the world. I welcomed the at times fantastical optimism of this book. It inspired hope for the power of human kindness and friendship to heal and find self-acceptance.
