I really loved this book - as much as I wasnt sure about briefly reliving 2020 again through a fictional retelling, I did find this story to be a really thoughtful reflection on the pandemic and George Floyd’s murder. The writing was a perfect mix of beautiful description but direct as well. I was so captivated by the story. Loved it!
