Thank you to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for providing me with this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I thought this was a really cute read, all about following your dreams while staying true to yourself. How one person’s story doesn’t define how you should write your own. How two journeys can be completely opposite yet still have the same underlying path. 

I will admit I did cry through the last, like, three chapters of the book. I love stories about messy characters, especially ones like Mia, and I think the characters were all super distinct and deep. I especially love all the queer sapphic rep and the three generations of sapphic women within the same family. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like that in any piece of media before and I appreciated it very much.

The only thing I’ll say is that the pacing felt a little off for me. It felt like things were going too fast at times, but everything evened out in the end. Overall, I think this is a quick, easy read for anyone looking for a mother-daughter story, and for anyone too scared to chase a dream.
