You have to be emotionally prepared for this book. There are a lot of triggers, but it is also beautifully written and well done. Meredith is one of the best main characters I've read lately, and I'm so lucky to be part of her journey.

Somehow this was a cozy and comforting story. Obviously there is some sadness given the character’s situation and mental health; but, more often than not, there was a sense of hope that made this a lovely read.
