A little slow start to introduce you to Lucy, but once it was competition time it was a super fast read.
There are very difficult themes to this book, a lot of dealing with fear as an adult and the different complications that adulthood brings versus when you are a child. Plus the trauma you can bring from your childhood.
This was beautiful, whimsical and heart-string tugging.
The ending was perfect.
