This story leaves me feeling a bit off. Overall, I enjoyed the back and forth timeline and piecing the story together. Most parts I figured out well before it was told but the build up to was done well.

I almost stopped at 60%, infidelity just isn’t my jam. I understand there were reasons and hardships that lead to it but truthfully, no excuse would work for me. 

Frank was a gem, a gentle giant, and deserved better. So much better.

I feel like this always happens, I’ve seen some RAVING about this “life altering” book and I read it and think…welp, it was ok 🫤

Anywho, didn’t love it, didn’t hate it. Just kinda pushed through because of the reviews I had seen and finished feeling underwhelmed. 
adventurous challenging emotional funny inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced

Excellent 

Honestly, I want to rate this higher. The story telling is top tier.
The concept is engaging. As an audiobook, I really vibed with the narrator.
Unfortunately, I just really had beef with every single character other than farmer Frank. That man is pure, wholesome love.
Everyone else annoyed me and it made the book almost insufferable at times.  ☹️
