This is a novel about people who are broken and not yet stronger at the broken places, though at least the two POVs you can see how and where they will be.

It's hard to be depressed, and it's hard to be in love with someone who's depressed, and there are feedback loops Ms. Buchanan captures, that she seems to know well.
