As soon as I saw @allayne_webster posting about this I knew it would draw me back to YA for the first time in years and it was just as much my kind of thing as I expected. Great voice and so much heart. A very enjoyable train ride 😉

Selfie by @allayne_webster: perfectly paced, relentlessly heartbreaking, uncomfortably real, and then so heartwarming. It made me realise I have been both Dene and Tully in my friendships 🥴 As always, Allayne’s characterisation of *everyone* is rich and fascinating ❤️#LoveOzYA
