Excellent quick read. Had me tearing up only 22 pages in. Perfect companion on a cold, snowy January day.

I have an unfortunate habit of starting to mirror characters in the media I consume, for better or for worse. At the halfway point, I was nervous that it would make me miserable. Nora Seed, however, contains multitudes. This book was a delight. Although I correctly predicted the ending and the plot itself was very easy to divine, I still had a good time watching Nora's journey. Definitely a good addition to my library.

misleading synopsis, underdeveloped characters, heavy-handed themes/messaging, self-help vibes, and poor mental health representation made me skip the alleged "meat" of this book and just read the ending to see if my assumptions were correct... let's just say i'm glad i did
