Will recommend this to my friends. The characters were vivid with distinctive personalities which made them appear so realistic. You rooted for the protagonist in her vulnerability. A story with substance, not all fluff and romance. The narration was easy to listen to and had a lot of emotion in it.

Funny and insightful
