I loved a lot about this book. The prose was beautiful. The commentary on womanhood and queerness and mothers and society.
However if definitely suffers from being self published. I would love to see a version of this book that has gone through an editor. Some of the punctuation was off, and not in man intentional way, and there were more than a few instances of fully the wrong word being used. It’s a shame. I still highly recommend the read though.
