The amount of times I had to stop reading to recollect myself. I can't say this was an enjoyable read exactly, but it definitely left an impact. At the heart of it, I believe this is a story about the consequences of a very unusual mother/daughter relationship, and Erika is a very interesting character.

Dorothy's writing is so beautiful, subtle, tender. I'm sad this is the only book she ever wrote, I wish there was more than a little over 100 pages of her writing for me to dive into. I'm definitely rereading this at some point.

Really enjoyed this one. I especially loved the author's witty sense of humor.
