I really loved the majority of this story. The idea of doing new things as a "passion project" is such a great idea and one that I might start doing.

I enjoyed how the story progressed but immediately felt that Bennett desperately needed to go to therapy and no one was talked to her about that. Yes she was dealing with a lot of grief but she didn't have a health support system to help her get help to actually work through that.

I thought that Henry was a fun character, but he too needed therapy and his own support system didn't seem to be pushing him towards that either.

The chemistry between Bennett and Henry was cute, but then towards the end things sped up way to fast which didn't feel authentic to the characters journey. Thats about when I started no enjoying the book as much.

Overall, I enjoyed the story about finding the light and making your own way through grief but was annoyed that no one wanted to actually deal it and instead just speed thru a relationship and not talk about how they are truly feeling.
