If this had just been a story about Ginny I probably would have rayed this much higher. I loved her story, it was so good. Magella story though was very meh. I couldn't relate to her at all but that might be because I don't have any children so I've never given birth or gone through postpartum or any of those kinds of things. I think that she might have been a more relatable character if I had, but I didn't care for her whininess and her like self-involved outlook on her life. It just made it a chore to read her chapters.
