A rare 5 star rating from me! This one vaguely reminded me of THE MOST FUN WE EVER HAD by Claire Lombardo which is one of my very favorite books. I enjoyed the nods to Little Women, which I read as a "book club" pick earlier this year and feel like I don't have a ton of notes on things I would change about the book or that I was unhappy with. I could totally see this book as a movie someday and I think it might help me with how I see all the sisters.

I absolutely loved this book and devoured it. The depth of the characters was incredible, it was as if I was living the story with them. I cried at least 10 different times reading it because I was so immersed. The writing, the setting, the sisters, Charlie, William, everything made this a beautiful, impactful story I won’t forget soon. If you like in depth characters and family dynamics, 100% recommend this journey you go on.
