I have never picked up an arc quicker, I started it as soon as possible after being approved and I'm so glad I did as this was phenomenal. 
I completely fell in love with these characters, with Sorcha our main character who I understood and saw myself in from page one. I also loved her friendship group, Agnes, and even the unlikeable characters were so well developed and intriguing. This was perfect for a character-driven reader like me. I also learned a lot about Nova Scotia through the lush description of setting, as well as the language of Scottish Gaelic. 
I was fully immersed and invested in the story arc, it was difficult to put this book down. There is so much humour and heart and heartbreak poured into these pages, it was a very emotional but healing read. 
This book is no less than 5 stars, one of the easiest I've ever given out and it has made it into my top 10 favourite books of all time, in 6th place! I am very much looking forward to buying a physical copy for my own bookshelves and I will reread this in the future as there are so many beautiful quotations I want to annotate. I would highly highly recommend this book but please, as always, check trigger warnings as this delves into some sensitive topics. 
5 stars
