Beautifully written, Yael is a young woman with a life time of depression but it’s always been under control until one day it isn’t.
This book follows Yael after ‘the incident’ as she tries to find her feet again. It takes us through her relationship with her sister and her young family, a new friendship interspersed with flashbacks that lead us through Yale’s life and we can understand what has shaped her.
Gentle and inspiring, I loved it from the moment I started to read.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy to read.

I follow Nadine Cohen on the socials, and, as soon as I saw she had a novel coming out I knew I was going to read it. I was extra excited when I requested and was granted it on NetGalley. And then I was worried, because I only leave honest reviews and the blurb of this book is quite general.
Well I needn't have worried, this book is EVERYTHING. I couldn't put it down, and read it in two days. I'm on an accidental Jewish book kick, and this one covers some of the same themes as [book:One Day We're All Going to Die|123169105] secular women in semi-religious communities, generation trauma, young(ish) women going through stuff, but also so much more. The main main character Yael is trying so hard. There is a lot of trauma and pain in this book, but it rings true, rather than being gratuitous, which is either about the skilled writing or about how much of this is not actually fiction.
Either way I cried three times and laughed more often than I can count and highly recommend this book to anyone who likes books that give you all the feels.
