About the message I mentioned in the title, it is actually explicitly stated in form of the protagonist's thoughts. To summarize, it's about not letting your regrets define you and to count your blessing, though written much more eloquently than I could ever express.
If you just want a nice Realistic Fiction book to pick up this serves that purpose well. It's even on Kindle Unlimited if you have it. I don't know how to end this review but thank you for bothering to read this mess of a first review.
