At its core I think this is a story about living with and healing from various traumatic experiences. The author weaves so many important topics into this novel but still manages to keep it fairly light and entertaining.
The characters are 3-dimensional and complex familial and romantic relationships are portrayed well. Somehow I still wasn't super invested though.
