Bruised

Kings, Queens, and In-Betweens felt like a hug. It was anxiety inducing, but lovingly so! Bruised felt like the loving callout on shitty coping skills. I had to pause a few times to have emotions (and to screech when my girls FINALLY got to kiss, oh my god). I'm glad I learned of Boteju when her first book came out so I was already prepared to get this one as soon as it hit the shelves.
