Poor Susannah never should have gone home to visit. Sheesh! As someone who was frequently stopped by older people in my late teens and early twenties to be lectured about my tattoos and as someone who narrowly dodged out of the way when a grandparent of mine, upon seeing my new lip ring, literally tried to grab it and rip it out of my face(!!!), this made me shudder all over. The writing was really good and I'm definitely going to look for more books by this author!
