I felt so detached from this. Not sure if it was because of the breaks in the writing, but unfortunately this semi coming of age story wasn’t enjoyable. A bit messy, confusing/interesting dynamic of the relationships. Spoiler…Edie didn’t really grow from her experiences until THE very end of the book.
