This one will stay with me for a while.
It is very cleverly composed though I found it strange to adjust to the alternating stories/chapters at first (It starts to make sense and you get used to it I promise).
Pleasantly surprised at the casual LGBTQ rep - it immediately made me feel more at home reading this book. I'm always grateful for stories with queer characters where it their queer identity is not all consuming within the story.
I'm sad to have finished this one but this book definitely emotionally prepares you for the inevitability of endings.
Endings are beginnings.
