the book definitely gets more interesting but it's just not the kind of book that i find myself drawn back to as much. i also find that, contrary to the short stories scattered within, it's easier to read in a continuous sitting(s) rather than shorter spurts.

So much happens in the second quarter of the book. Pacing is pretty good. The story really makes me yearn for my grandpa.

Chill romance set with a meaningful historical context Young characters aren’t fucking annoying, it helps that you get their context in their old age too
