Started and finished this audiobook on a long walk in Lanzarote. I hiked up volcanos, following the story of close-knit sisters, a wise loving father, and overbearingly endearing Italian mother navigate tricky relationships, cracked marriages, and a wild married at first sight scheme that was bound to turn everything upside down. One of the characters lack of awareness of her feelings for her best friend did get frustrating towards the end, but alls well that ends well, and all.

This book was unique. It was hard to get into at first and a bit slow to pick up. Beyond that, it's a very cute story about following through with what's right, or chasing after what you truly want – who you truly want. But the element of reality in this book is what set me back a bit. Pursuing a science field simply because you're transfixed on a girl? Fixing a science experiment for experienced scientists? Deciding that dating is too challenging and agreeing to blindly marry someone you've never met? And then everything falls apart when those very same people seem to own up to the feelings they have for other people in the first place. Like I said: cute story, but not really a realistic one.
