This was a wonderful character-driven novel about three generations of women, all deeply felt and empathetically drawn. Motherhood, abortion, sexuality, career, belonging, friendship, and family relationships are all recurrent themes. I haven't read a novel in a long time like this that felt so truly like it was about real people, a real slice of life in the 1990s and 2010s. I loved how Whittall dealt with the character Missy's bisexuality.
