A light and reflective read that I found quite enjoyable. It leaves you with a sense of hope about everyday life. I especially appreciate how each story wasn't wrapped up absolutely perfectly at the end. There was enough there to suggest each character was on a new and more fulfilling path, but it wasn't like the author wanted everything to end exactly as predicted with no loose ends. The point is that there is space for growth at the end of each story, and I found this refreshing. Each character was unique and I felt connected to them all in different ways. Overall, a relatively quick and relaxing read. The perfect book for a time when it's tricky to follow a longer novel and you're in a headspace that can't handle anything other than lighthearted.
Moderate: Sexism
Minor: Ableism
