I can’t believe this is a debut novel 😦 This is genuinely such an incredible book I don’t even know how to put most of my thoughts into words. It kind of reminds me of Hula by ‘Iolani Hakes which I read earlier this month. There are similar themes of generational trauma, imperfect people just doing their best, and the rifts that form between mothers and daughters and how they change over time. There were so many emotional moments, so much I relate to despite being little like these women outside of also being a mother.
