Took a while for me to get invested, but once I hit mid-way(ish), I finished it super quickly. The author had a very delicate and real way of describing family relationships and parental trauma and what a complex concept family can be. It was really beautiful and diverse.
The radio sessions felt a little cheesy and the stories felt a bit repetitive, but they definitely drove a point home. The love story was very tender and the characters maintained themselves as real people, versus falling into the trope of “perfect partner that does everything for the main character”. I love the way multiple forms of relationships and love were explored.
