sspaghettiboness 's review for:

Five-Star Stranger by Kat Tang
4.75
emotional reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The only thing that kept me from a full 5 star review is that there were a fair share of sections that seemed like frilly rambling. Which I don’t dislike, but it slowed the pacing considerably. 

I’ve read a lot of books from the perspective of parents, and never once been truly thrusted into the heart and soul of a parent in this way. Even Nightbitch pales in comparison. It made me think so much about my Mum and how she feels about me. Truly beautiful.
