I loved this book. It read as incredibly honest, sincere, and wholly nonjudgmental. I loved Ruth AKA Baby AKA Miss Sunday. She was incredibly layered and really just wanted to give and recieve love without fear of losing it. Who doesn't!!! The writing style is soooo lush and Newell writes every character with so much dimension and care. The end gets a little too abstract and meandering but it has way too much good to care about a perhaps unstuck landing.

Thank you FSG for sending and Libro.fm for supplying me with the audio. I never had to live without my girl!!!!
