This book was like reading my thoughts on a page at a time. It has highly overwhelming but also deeply comforting. Gilda, the main character, felt like me in an almost scary way at times. The ending was incredibly resonant, with things not wrapping up perfectly but with a clear hopeful outlook to the future. I broke out into tears a few times in the book. There were also some very big shocks and twists in the book but all were appropriate.
