This novel was genius. The relatability of the characters experiences and how they handled their emotions and changes in their  lives kept me reading. Pulled into this strange tale of magical realism and love. I absolutely enjoyed the parallels between what was happening to Lewis and how it affected Wren with that of someone who was ill and their caregiver.

The writing style was exquisite and flowed seamlessly. The prose shifting from play, lists, monologue, and prose as simple and effortlessly that you hardly noticed the transitions. I’ll definitely be on the look out for any books Emily Habeck releases in the future.
