I loved this book so much more than I expected to. Honestly, Saffron as a character, is very easy to not like, however, I think a lot of her thoughts and actions are justified due to the situations she's in and almost makes her a more realistic character. I love how it's set over the course of a week and switches between the perspectives of both Saffron and Tom. Tom is such a lovable character and the way Shrimpton has written as him, how he becomes more open with his thoughts to himself through the novel mirrors his relationship with Saffron. It's so very rare to find a book that shines a light on being homeless and how people are homeless for many different reasons and I hope this novel will help reduce stigma and start a conversation. I'm definitely keeping this book on my shelves for future reading.
Although this book was gifted to me by the publisher through reader's first, all thoughts and opinions are my own and I would like to thank them for the copy of this wonderful novel.
