   Good story with a bad narrator

   Loved the story couldn't stand the narrator. The story is well written and I love the emphasis on the importance of mental health, but the narrator makes one of the main characters sound 5 yrs old and the other MCs accent fades in an out. Her narration honestly sound like someone reading a book to a toddler with silly voices and accents.

   great story

   I loved this book. One thing that was a little weird is that Grace didn't recognize Shilo " the love of her life"when she saw her again after only 6 years. literally had dinner with her and thought she looked familiar, but didn't know who she was until her mother told her.

   Applause for touching on Mental Health

   With so many books never mentioning depression or anxiety it is nice to see a glimpse into the Mental Health world. These young women showed a connection to one another & to family. The book takes us on the ups and downs of a lesbian relationship in a small town.

   An important book but...

   As the subject of mental health is an important subject, especially with young LGBTQ, this book is important, and very well written. The characters are well developed and there is a twist in a way, that I will not write about, not to spoil the reading. It was very difficult for me to listen to this book because the narration was one of the worst i have listen to in the 3 years or so that I am using audiobooks. The narrator chose to give all the characters different voices, which is generally an excellent idea, but for that the narrator need to have to ability to do so, Joan Dukore does not. Grace who is one of the two main characters has this annoying 5 year old girl’s voice and to think that she is going eventually teach at a university... if I had a professor with such a voice I would run east and far away...

   I enjoyed this novel and being able to listen while I was driving. I do believe the author did an excellent job in telling the story although I have no first hand knowledge of the subject.

   I Love the story!

   I love the story let's get that out there right now. The characters were down to earth and relatable, I was feeling their pain. Mental illness is not something that we discuss enough in fiction, let along mental illness while dealing with a relationship. I thought Maggie did an excellent job of showing the stress of all of those things. And the support system that Grace had even though she didn't really know how great it was. My only real issue with this audiobook was the narration, the narrator's voice just didn't do it for me. And it make it hard for me to finish the book, but I did finish it and I loved the story.
