Thoughts

I didn’t know what to expect from this book and was pleasantly surprised by a completely insightful story about a woman in a difficult relationship struggling with the fact that her friends are moving along the ‘typical’ life plan of marriage and kids etc, whilst she isn’t. Alongside career stresses and that difficult second book problem. Easy to read but difficult content, I found this relatable and ultimately quite sad.
