I loved this book! I enjoyed the inclusion of Scots language, the way the characters were flawed and loveable, I loved the way it was willing to address 'political' stuff and I agreed with the views expressed. The book follows Kelly, a homeless woman, at first in Glasgow and then on a journey. I felt for her and found her a really relatable character. I'd say the book is medium paced but I found it hard to put down and I feel that Kelly and some of the other characters will live on in my head for a long time!
