this book deserves every award it has and more. 
i feel represented by Elizabeth Zott and also by the need to want to know someone who died more than you did when they were alive. 

i’m so emotional.

Wow, I really enjoyed this book. I think people who enjoyed “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” would like this. 

Just know that it’s SAD. It’s literary fiction, NOT comedy or romance at all. And it begins with the memory of a workplace sexual assault. Check TWs. 

It’s multi POV. I especially enjoyed the dog getting a POV too.

Read this because I saw Angela's rating and got curious haha I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would! I was a bit dubious at first but the romance really worked for me because it was only secondary to the characterization.
