After experiencing a horrible trauma 7 years ago, Avery returns home and must face the past in order to move forward in her future.
This story was incredibly moving and emotional from the get-go. At its core, the themes of grief, reflection, and moving on were very powerful and cathartic. There were a few minor threads that felt a little unexplored and left me wanting more, but it was still a very satisfying read. The relationships (especially between the women) are the true star of the tale: romantic, sisterly, motherly, platonic, they're all created with such depth and care. The emotional threads are the true heart of this work, this needs to be on everyone's TBR. Forgiveness — of others, and of yourself— is so important, and Rochelle B Weinstein's tale captures that gravity with ease.
