Wow this was such a poignant story that I simply couldn't put down. All of the perspectives were so interesting to read from and the relationships between the characters were psychologically very well developed. The reason why this book is not as memorable for me as it perhaps could've been is just because the characters were not necessarily written in a way that I could relate to. I felt like they didn't have very distinctive voices, it was more like this literary-fiction-gaze that we were looking at them through which I can't explain but if you know, you know lol. Anyway, a super well-written and poignant read regardless!
