Description
A sharp, darkly funny coming-of-age novel, this story follows a young woman trying to make sense of adulthood while navigating family tensions, complicated relationships, and the uncertainty of growing into an identity of her own. With wit and emotional precision, it explores the gap between how adults present themselves and the confusion, longing, and vulnerability they often conceal. The result is an insightful and poignant portrait of growing up in a world where no one feels quite as grown-up as they seem.
