Thank you to Netgalley and Zando for the eARC in Exchange for my honest review!

An interesting character study especially on tragedy, community, and mother-daughter relationships! This novel was Thought provoking and I marked quite a few lines. 

We get 10 different character POVs, we get to know some of them more than others but even then it still felt too short to really get to know anyone especially well. I didn’t like some character’s chapters compared to others and was left with a lot of unanswered questions. 

I finished this in 2 days! I was so engaged and pulled into the lives of these young girls and women 

We don’t ever really get answers but it makes sense for the book. Also even though there’s a lot of characters to keep track of, you get POVs from characters on the outer edges (not as close to the girl who passes) which adds depth and shows just how far the ripples of tragedy go in a community! 

Dark, emotional read but despite this there were still some beautiful moments too. Overall I’d highly recommend if you like character driven, stories centered on a small community coming together, through the perspective of its women and teens.
