This is partly my fault for not realizing this book was mostly a romance, but I did not enjoy this. Tallie was annoying and the story was very unrealistic.

This book felt like a warm and fuzzy dream tinged with sadness here and there. Really felt the hygge. Are these actions that an actual therapist would do?

Wow. I had to suspend belief at the beginning but the depth of the character study kept me turning pages. The last 1/4 took a turn I hadn’t expected and wow! I’ll be mulling this over awhile. I wish I had read it with someone to discuss! Lots to unpack.

This book was a good book, I just didn’t want to read it and I don’t know why. I pushed through and listened to the rest (audiobook).

This book was beautifully written and captured the complex darkness and light of life in such simple ways. The connection between the two characters is so palpable, it’s as if I was wrapped in a cozy blanket on Tallie’s couch sipping tea and enjoying the conversation right along with them.
