This book has highs, lows, laughs, cries, and warm fuzzies. Henry and Alex are both written to be so normal, or striving to be as normal as possible, while both are high profile political figures. Each character’s self discovery journey mirrors society and envelopes a loving family versus a judgmental family. Her characters are so well developed as well as the side characters which is what kept me glued to this book. I’ve read it two times already and will likely read it again before the movie comes out.
