I could see some of myself in Plum; lost in the ocean of school and anchoring myself in books. And wanting any chance to be part of any relationship. This possibly would have been better during my teenage years.
Plum (Patience) and Ginny lost their father a deade ago but everyone is still dealing with his virtual ghost is present, including where they haven't really dealt with his study; and things are complicated, their mother is struggling, Ginny is trying to live up to the predictions of genius that her father made for her when she was very small and Plum finds some work and possibly a relationship with Tate Kurokawa (who honestly is not being done any favours by his teachers) with whom she doesn't seem to have anything in common but it turns out she does.
It was a nice read and I almost wish I could go back and give it to past me. Not my usual read but I'm glad I read it.… (altro)
