Read for MLIS elective
This was my first time reading a book by Laura and it definitely WON'T be the last!
I would enjoy it as a movie - the descriptions were so lovely and beautiful (especially the food - u g h don't read this on an empty stomach!)! I also appreciate that the author wrote about friendship breakups, and how they can be both heartbreaking and necessary. The ending was sweet and I liked how everything turned out (Lila's choice was 💯).
