Excellent book. Only wish the content in the epilogue had been explored more.

Pretty cute. Very sweet most the time. Unfortunately, the story is pretty forgettable. Maybe that's ironic.

I didn't like her decision to get back with her husband. Just seemed regressive. But hey, what do I know about the minds of heterosexuals?

If it becomes a movie, though, I will be watching from the comfort of my couch.

Overall any "triggering" content in this book was very tame in comparison to most other novels written in the last twenty years. The focus was much more on the characters and story than on describing difficult things.
