The structure added layers of depth but also made me wonder if it was planned from the beginning or evolved during writing. How do these timelines connect for the author?

The emotional tone really resonated with me, but I was curious if that was something Holly Brickley aimed for or just naturally emerged from the story.

The vivid descriptions brought the past to life, leading me to wonder what kind of research or personal experience went into creating this authentic atmosphere.
