| Completely relatable and beautifully written this book is like no other I’ve encountered. Deeply layered and textured-it’s a story about love finding its true place in the world. I give it all the stars. | |

Also need to finish three pieces of writing by Tuesday. Then I can start Home.
Are you free the week of the 21st? Thursday evening, 5/24?
