I’m not a huge fan of the time hops. Other than that, everything is good.

I wish I had read the books before watching the show. I was expecting this to be all about Belly pining over Conrad but it’s not. Not really. Not until the end anyway. The book also leaves me to wonder about the tv adaptation. But, I’m not a writer or producer so what do I know.

Anyway, good read. Quick read.

Kirja eteni ihan sujuvasti ja oli nopeasti luettu, mutta hahmot eivät saaneet puolelleen eikä tämä hirveästi itselle mitään antanut.

Listened to the whole book whilst hiking in the sunshine, and it was the perfect company. This is a wonderful summer read, with a lighthearted and hopeful story, even if there are some emotional aspects. The relationships between all the characters were so wholesome.
