Cuuuuute! This is a lovely middle grade novel captured in emails between Bett and Avery, with occasional messages to and from their dads and other characters. It was delightful to see the two girls fall into a friendship and draw others into their orbit to create a new and sometimes-rocky but loving chosen family. 

I found myself wanting more insight into the dads and their experiences -- they didn't feel fully fleshed out to me -- but perhaps just because I'm closer in age to them than the daughters!
