Incredibly written book with so many layers and meanings to discover within each page. It takes a lot to make me cry at a book these days, but this one did at the end. however I will say that the crush June had on her Uncle Finn and the way it’s handled doesn’t quite sit right with me, and makes me feel conflicted. I do recommend it highly, but be aware of that weird detail.
