Skye is funny and real and flawed. Laughed out loud several times at her awkwardness and commentary. A great story about community and connectedness. Characters with depth and backstories that don't feel forced. Also I love Philly and I love lesbians.
And this beautiful quote "People let us down. We let them down. Letdown is inevitable, Sister Skye. But, you know what else is inevitable? If you allow yourself to close that distance? Connection. Joy."
And this beautiful quote
