I swore I was only going to glance at this and get back to my own work...but I got totally absorbed. What a beautiful story, relatable and moving. Coming of age in a way that's not preachy or judgy. Really without a moral to the story, which I like. Great descriptions and dialogue. I could see the scenes (and smell!) - the inside of Amber's place, the hotel room, the cafe. Thank you so much. It was a good 10 minutes I took out of my day!
