This was another recent re-read of a Binchy favourite. Comforting.

This book started off quite slow but Binchy's descriptive writing kept me reading. The more I read the more I grew to like the charictors. This is a good read if you are looking for a story of self discovery and growth. Slice of life. There are some triggering topics so be warned.
