The Bright Years by Sarah Damoff
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Oh this is exactly the kind of story I love reading about. Broken people (and aren’t all people broken, really) who find each other, find happiness, find a way to wreck it, cause trauma on their kids who grow up to cause other trauma. People who try hard and find moments to redeem themselves and then make mistakes again and then work hard again. Rinse and repeat.
Great sadness, big joys, unexpected surprises, finding our way back to each other, forgiving some too often and other not enough. Trying and trying and trying again. This book is so beautiful that you will love the moments you spend with it.
with gratitude to netgalley and Simon & Schuster for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review
