Maya Vidal manages to be a personally-opposite chaos point that shows the reader the way for personal reflection. If you finish the book without seeing yourself in the way she responded deaths in her family, complicated parental relationships, and vices, then odds are, you just haven’t lived long enough. Maya, and the reader, will be healed with time.
