Needed a re-read because it I was telling someone about this book. Always amazing, it’s so well written and if compared to other books from that era its wording is not complicated, besides an excellent story.

As a vegan it’s always conflicting reading about ranch life but I will always overlook it gladly for fiction books 🥲💞 Also, shoutout to ADHD representation in women 🫶

I loved it! I was thinking that this one was a little bit dark and the ED issues took the whole discussion of the book but it was so so important that this book pays rendition to something as serious and as important as mental health and it was necessary to do not switch the focus to other matters.
