These characters and series have grown on me, I enjoy listening to them. This one is definitely a time capsule for the Covid lockdown. Lucy reminds me of my mom in some ways, I find myself rolling my eyes at her sometimes but also having empathy and understanding for her.

I was disoriented when I began reading this. I didn’t realize that it was part of a series and that I had read some of the related books. I knew that I had not read THIS book, and it took me awhile to figure it out. I enjoyed this one more than the others, I think. Since it took place during the pandemic the meandering writing style fit the story perfectly. There are some profound thoughts expressed here. I feel like I need to reread this and note them.

Surprisingly, this is my favorite of the series. I say surprisingly because it about that first stretch of the pandemic, which I wasn’t sure I was ready to read about yet. But honestly I feel that I connected to this more because I lived it, whereas a lot of the other stories in this are about a woman dealing with marriage and children and adult life in a way that I’ve not experienced. I felt this was quiet in a good way rather than quiet in a meh *shrugs shoulders* way how the others seemed (not sure if that makes sense but it’s how I feel!)
