The Guncle is sweet, cute, fun, and a perfect last minute addition to any summer reading tbr.

I thought the premise was super sweet. The perfect feel-good books. I think I’m in the minority within the book community when I say that I normally love child characters in books because a lot of people find them tedious and annoying. That was 100% not the case in The Guncle. Maisie and Grant added so much humor and love to the already very saccharine story that it made my heart feel so full. They were the stars in my book.
