I absolutely loved this book so much! I love how the author writes these beautiful strong women yet shows how even strength has flaws and we are always learning. Reminding us what true treasures are in our life these friends go through so much and a great example of “when it rains, it pours.” I will definitely look into other works of this author. I highly recommend this book! ☺️

I like the concept of this book- four friends trying to open a bookstore, how fun! The actual opening of the bookstore ended up being a background theme as each character had many, many things going on in their personal lives. Perhaps too many things and none of them totally flushed out so there were some big leaps that were made. I like stories in multiple voices though so enjoyed the switching between characters for each chapter.
