on someone's wishlist
Thank you so much for the unexpected kindness :)
Probably the best book I've read in quite a while. The obsessive attention to detail, the character growth and rhythm of the reveals are what I enjoyed the most. Everything I never told you gradually turns into everything I will never be able to tell you once I realize who I am and grow into someone new. There's shock and grief and betrayal, there's unrequited love and spite and envy. There's being human and afraid of being human. I can see why a book like this can take six years.
Now traveling to emmejo via the wishlist tag game

This arrived today, thank you!
I am moving most of the books from my TBR to the my available shelf because I am in the process of moving and trying to avoid moving books! If I have time, I still plan to read these, but I'm getting them ready to travel if that happens first.

I plan to drop this book off in the LFL this afternoon
Loved this book. A haunting look at the everyday destruction that a family can inflict on each other. Whether through things left unsaid, or the crushing weight of accumulated expectations.
