5.0

The nameless protagonist is neurodiverse, a viewpoint I have never read from before. Her whit, openness and honesty is refreshing. All of her anecdotes made me reflect on my own experiences in life, especially with ex-partners. It is all mostly internal dialogue, with parts of conversation weaved in; but my favourite character (feline companion) was definitely Porkchop! All I would change is for it to be longer, as it is set in one night. I wish I could’ve known what’s in her future! 

I very much encourage you all to grab a copy and check out the UK cover which is BEAUTIFUL 😍✨
