I should caveat this review with two biases: I'm a sucker for a) most coming of age stories, particularly if they're b) set in Ireland.
So, yes, I was deeply enthralled with this book. It was the perfect catalyst to get me back in the reading game after a 3-month draught. The story-telling was 10/10 and by the end of the book, I felt so invested in all the characters that it felt like it was somehow my own story. They were just human enough, just likeable enough, and just present enough to be chef's kiss lovely.
Would recommend to anyone looking for a moving portrayal of... well, humanity. Not sure what better way to describe the central plot
