I enjoyed every page. This book is so beautifully written and at many times I felt an overwhelming sense of trespassing - of being able to read and observe things the characters were experiencing in a way that felt like I was there too, but shouldn’t be allowed to be, feeling things that I had no right to feel. I want everyone to read this book and think about what a gift it is, to different people and communities, for different reasons.
