Women will relate to many of the characters' stories - romantic relationships, family, & hardships. Each story is (separated by chapter) is short (easy to read before bed or in between tasks) but still riveting. Also, Gaynor's writing is beautifully poetic.
Graphic: Child death, Rape, and Grief
Moderate: Homophobia and Lesbophobia
