For a book called 'Happy Place,' I spent most of it in shambles.

As a people-pleasing daughter, this felt almost too real. 

There is so much grief in this book: from holding onto post-graduate friendships for dear life to realizing you can outgrow yourself. It left me feeling homesick for a place I’ve never been to, and a person I’ve never known.
