Something about the way this is described as quiet, dreamy, & timeless had me always passing it by on the shelf even though it‘s been glowingly recommended my entire life. Those descriptors are certainly accurate, but this is also more. It‘s full of contradictions & quirky characters. I love that this revels in the painfully awkward stage of growing from girlhood to womanhood without being either painful or awkward.ππΌππΌππΌ
