I loved the concept of this book. I loved the metaphor of this book. I truly, truly wish the author didn’t have Maren and Julie have that conversation about Julie having attempted to commit suicide. It completely took me out of the book and made the metaphor of the situation of little doors and what they’re meant to be too on the nose. Overall, though, I loved this book. I related to it so much and think it’s an absolute must-read.
