 this book was good but it dragged on for way too long. i really liked the chrissie/julia POVs and how it felt like an 8 year old vs an adult. i was expecting it to be a little more climactic and i’m just left feeling unsatisfied with the ending

Very heavy with a hopeful ending. Bleak and dark through out. Find yourself simultaneously hoping for the main character and disliking them
