Heavier than you might think submitted by emjane on August 12, 2018, 9:34pm Bewarned -- this book is not as lighthearted as the cover might indicate. Whitehouse does a wonderful job of making the reader care about the wellbeing of the characters, which makes it more difficult to read the circumstances in which they find themselves.
