 interesting narration of the complexities and challenges of modern love. Large cast of characters fleshed out just enough! Will make for a great tv series I feel. Difficult topics were covered in this book and at times made for difficult reading. Not quite 5 stars because I felt I struggled to keep up the pace reading it.
