I loved this book. I listened to it on audio and it was excellent. She is an auto-read author for me. I love how it's a "romantic comedy" but with so much more depth. She develops the characters so well. I know I will continue to read whatever she puts out!

This was such a beautiful story about grief, love, family, and friendship. I loved the growth from Natalie throughout the book as she handled her grief from losing her husband and began to move on. When her friends try and set her up with Tom, she is not interested. But after small coincidences and running into him several times, they strike up a friendship. I loved the little mystery about who was leaving music in the piano for Natalie and I was not expecting the outcome to that. The ending was absolutely wonderful and had me smiling. This isn't a light and fluffy read, but a genuine story about love, life and feelings.
Lia Louis is a such a beautiful writer who pulls at all my heart strings. I knew going in that this book was about grief and would have some sadness to it, but I also trusted Lia Louis to write a story that would make me smile. Two years after Natalie's husband dies, she's struggling to find joy in her life. She does find happiness in playing piano at a London train station. One day a piece of sheet music shows up and surprises her. As she tries to discover who is behind the music that continues to appear, she discovers the joy in friendship and life and even finds herself willing to consider romance once again. This is a wonderful and heart-warming story that I highly recommend.
