Gosh - this book gave so much. Wonderful complex parent / child relationships. Characters with flaws that never default to stereotypes / cliches. Despair but also hope. I really loved it. A brilliant reminder that everyone has their own story. I loved and was almost a 5 star but for annoying punctuation and a desperate desire to see and know more of Leslie who I loved. I‘m also claiming it for a #pantone2023 for #pinkcosmos
