Matt said it sounded uplifting. /s

And there were parts of it that were very engaging! But a lot of it was overlong and drawn out. Which, I guess if your goal is to make people really feel how endless and miserable and horrific things were, Hannah succeeded. I have a lot of feelings, but my biggest one might just be that I'm not in a good headspace for this much darkness right now. 3? 2.5? I dunno.

CW for at least five stillbirths talked about during the course of the book, one of which was actively on-page and made me cry at work. Stupid Past Allie for picking this book for book club.
