There were predictable moments but it all worked itself out into a wholesome book that left me smiling and laughing to myself. I was so scared I would run out of Spotify audiobook hours that I bawled. Guess I was hooked!!

Probably my least favourite Abby Jimenez novel so far. However, it was a cute, fun and quick read.

I know I'll enjoy a book by Abby Jimenez even though I know it will rip out my heart and squash it underfoot. She writes family stories that have such depth and realism that they surprise me every time. And the truth of her love stories are the same way. Easy to read but never easy reads, if that makes sense. She deals with tough issues deftly. I cry multiple times in each one. Read it in a day because I didn't want to put it down.
