Olivia doesn't process thoughts and communicate the way most do, this leads to misunderstandings. Emily is desperate for help and affection, but too jaded and independent to accept it when it is offered. Angst, frustration, happiness, understanding, whatever that emotion is where you say "awwwww". Great writing, dialogue, and character building. All the technical stuff is on point. And then add in the heart and soul, this is a fabulous read.
