Thank you @macmillan.audio for a copy of this book. This was a beautiful debut novel about Madeline who is 25 and is helping her disabled father and pretty much being the sole provider. She has an opportunity to finally move out and learn to be on her own. My heart hurt for her journey with no close friends to guide her and her pressure to help her dad. The story is well told and I enjoyed seeing Madeline's growth.
