This was rather cute but far too slow for me. I liked who the female lead ended up with - he was the best character in the book for me. There was a lot of random discussion of feminism shoehorned in which actually broke me out of the story as it was so unexpected.

What an incredibly satisfying read. Also, THIS is how you handle a male love interest that is still married. Well done, Sophie Cousens.

For fans of Jenny Colgan and Beth O’Leary This is a story about family, love, and loss. Romance takes a backseat to a more in depth examination of family dynamics, histories, and the stories we tell ourselves, and how that impacts our lives. The beginning of the book started off fast paced and fun, and it just seemed to mellow out as you went along, getting more in-depth and serious. A good read if you’re looking for an easy, lighthearted summer read.
