I wasn't a fan of this writing style as a whole - although I really loved some lines - and generally I don't think this book was my cup of tea. I found it kind of scattered and strange, pacing wise, but I did enjoy the characters and the ending.

Thoroughly enjoyed! A story about love, trauma, forgiveness, and the meaning of family. Satisfying, and surprisingly uplifting, in classic Dawn French style.
