“Happiness was a net – that was it. You had to build a life that happiness was would snag in. When it did, you took it up and used it… Then you put down the net again. Nothing guaranteed you’d haul it up full every time. You wouldn’t. But sometimes happiness would catch, and you have what you needed, at least for a while.” This quote summarizes the book for me. The main character Laurel struggled but kept laying her net. It was also a nice reminder of our recent UP trip, I purchased this at a little Indy bookstore in Marquette by a local author.

I listened to the audiobook. Marin Ireland should ask the author how to pronounce some of the words that are unique to Michigan. Mackinac (Mack-in-awe) Bridge and Charlevoix (Char-li-voy - rhymes with boy) are two that needled my brain.

Dnf at 20% beautiful prose, exploring the everyday struggles of a mother and daughter trying to get by. Set in Michigan on Lake Superior.

Thought the protagonist made terrible choice after terrible choice for zero reason. Boring, anti-climatic
