A nice read, and an interesting premise! However, did feel as though it was trying to seem deeper than it was and I found the ending to be predictable. Overall though, I did enjoy the book.

As you read, it plays out in your mind like a movie. To be honest, it feels more like reading a script rather than a novel. For me, the story was a bit too cliche but nonetheless enjoyable

This was recommended to me by a good friend several months ago, and I am so glad I finally got around to it!! Nora could be any of us, and the way in which she is left to figure out the beauty of life is written so well. I knew the ending at the beginning, and there were no big plot twists or surprises, but this book didn’t need any of that. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.
