Read this if you want a sweet romance about choosing to believe in yourself after life deals you a series of bad times. I like how the love part only surfaces when the main character has proven he can stand on his own two feet. Another thing I like about this book is the setting—small town Kentucky, a part of the world I’ve never visited and Zentner is able to make it sound magical. The parts about the dog are also quite charming. Note: Readers do not have to worry about something happening to the dog.

I don’t love books about small towns, or that take place in the south generally, but I thought this one sounded interesting. Having only 1 character use “homies” was strange. Wasn’t working for me.
