Was in a reading slump until I was recommended this book. This was a great story about womanhood, family, career, balancing supporting your family and your dreams, and what it means to live after many years of hardship. Interesting perspectives that I’ve never considered and some passages about women/men really hit hard. The nostalgia and pain the main character had when she visited her old home was so real, and invoked feelings that I never knew how to describe. Loved this book so much!!!
