I hate to be the one who says this but, I read this book after being offended by the first part of the book and the list of whether I would like it or not. While I was able to check a lot of the checkboxes the rest I was not. But that didn't stop me from wanting to read the book.
But then I read it and finished it and I still hated everything about it.
Thank you Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book is very well written and the characters are portrayed beautifully as well. Looking forward to more works of the author. Definitely a recommend.

Do you enjoy historical fiction reads? I just finished a good one. The Campbell Club by David R Smith is amazing.

There's always a electric plot and flow to storyline set in this time. And this book depics the antics of the time and those living in it well.
1980s is often described as one of vibrancy, change and very often "anything goes" free for all.
The cast of characters we watch here are all coming to terms with something or travelling towards something. Some succeed in navigating the time better than others.
They are also so different but it shows how still,very often we all follow the same thoughts when similar things hit us. We may react differently though depending on just what makes us us and who we have around us at the time.
I do love a book that has a cast of character we are set to learn about. This books was very good at helping you understand the breadth of different people's emotions and actions.

This captivating novel transports readers back to the vibrant 1980s counterculture, weaving a nostalgic and romantic tale of self-discovery, love, and the intricate complexities of human connection. It's a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever yearned for a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them, set against a backdrop of social change, artistic expression, and the search for authenticity.
The narrative delves into the lives of characters who are navigating the challenges and thrills of adulthood amidst a cultural landscape that is both exhilarating and uncertain. They grapple with questions of identity, purpose, and belonging, all while forging relationships that are as passionate as they are tumultuous. Through their experiences, readers are invited to reflect on the universal themes of love, loss, and the enduring power of hope.
With its richly drawn characters, evocative setting, and poignant exploration of the human spirit, this book is a must-read for anyone who appreciates a story that is both heartfelt and thought-provoking. It's a testament to the power of literature to transport us to another time and place, while also reminding us of the timeless truths that connect us all.
