Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng
dark
emotional
sad
tense
fast-paced
“You never got what you wanted; you just learned to get by without it.”
On the surface this book is about grief but underneath that, it’s about so much more. It’s a study on families and expectations and what it means to love unconditionally. How fair is it to want more for your children than what you had? I saw myself in so many of the characters and the way their dynamics were so warped due to insecurities and things left unspoken. A really wonderful read.
