This book is fantastic. Rey Spangler’s writing is truly magnificent as they reel you in to a world of flawed humans, family responsibilities, grief, expectations, and anxiety. 

Both of the characters in this book are beautiful and wonderful as they find a way to overcome opinions they have internalised from others. 

The theme of wholeness is prevalent throughout the book alongside what makes a family and what is true support. 

I absolutely adore the way Rey threads humour and character development so naturally in to the story. 

I was blown away by how seen I felt considering this book is set in a high society culture, which is entirely alien to me.  But that’s part of the beauty of Rey’s work that I have read so far. The struggles are real and can be found in all warps of life. 

I highly recommend this book and can’t wait to get my hands on a physical copy.
