So so good. I’m a little overwhelmed with emotions right now. It’s been a while since I’ve connected with a main character like this and seen myself in a story.  Our experiences and circumstances are different but there was a lot that really hit me in the gut. Things I’ve thought of, my complicated relationship with religion growing up, etc. I can’t wait to read more by this author!
