This book, like her others, has a contemplative, deep, observant, hopeful, story about two complicated lives, with a falling in love story included. It’s not too heavy, and I think most people won’t feel bogged down by it unless you are struggling with feelings over divorce that might be triggered by this book.
Cleo’s committing to herself and having a ceremony for it sounded ridiculous, but the thoughts and intentions surrounding it and the words she speaks during the ceremony echo, in some form, what every woman who has reached the age of thirty thinks, having learned hard lessons in their 20s.
Mack’s imploded marriage has left a wake of mild destruction that’s he’s struggling to deal with. He’s doing a decent job, though hope is something he struggles with, and Silver doesn’t gloss over this like it’s nothing, she writes about it, realistically.
One Night on the Island is a beautiful book, and while I love an HEA, I’m happy with their unconventional HFN.
