 Australian transplant Coralie meets journalist Adam, falls for him, and builds a life with both him and his daughter Zora…but what has she lost along the way? I love a slice of life book and Stanley is remarkably gifted about blending domestic, intimate details with life-changing world events, as the book goes from 2013 to 2022. I also loved Coralie, who felt like a dear friend from the very first chapter and who I was sad to say goodbye to when the book ended. The supporting characters are wonderfully done and nuanced too and Adam and Coralie’s relationship is particularly well sketched. You understand exactly what she loves about him, what frustrates her about him, and the joys and agonies both big and small of the world they build together. Funny, warm, smart, and highly recommended for fans of Dolly Alderton.
