I think I won't remember anything about this book in a few weeks but it was a great reading experience. It's very well written and despite talking about hard topics like pandemic, internment camps or dementia has a very fleeting, summery feel to it. I really enjoyed how some tidbits of information reappeared in various parts of the novel, playing a different part.
