Intriguing book that unfolds over the course of one day, with flashbacks to the mysterious history of the characters. The Nantucket island setting is perfect for summer.

I, unfortunately, read many of the reviews before beginning this book. I normally don't. However, I couldn't disagree more with some of them. I really enjoyed this book. The characters were very approachable in my mind. I love the immersion of past events and their connection to the present. And what a clear picture on the ripple effect of such a loss. I feel this book portrays a fabulous message of choices and the ability to change one's mind yet still be considerate of others that are affected.

3.5 STARS ⭐️ A quick and intense story about love and friendship. I enjoyed this a lot. There were parts that really pulled at my emotions and made for a pleasant read. Great for a rainy/snowy day.
