The award for best first chapter goes to this book! A beautiful read — cut 0.25 for rating because the last few chapters seemed a bit stretched and felt unlike the first half/two-thirds of the book.

The relationship between mother and daughter is honestly refreshing. I think some of us can relate. Some of the things said in anger to each other was inappropriate, which is often the case though the mom made a really low blow that stuck with me.
