This one surprised me. I don’t remember how it ended up on my TBR but I’m glad it did. It was on Kindle Unlimited and I need to get through those so I don’t waste the $11.99 a month. This was funny, quick to read, and heartwarming. Penelope is the odd man out in her well to do family and she has decided to come home for Thanksgiving for the first time in 10 years. On the way home she runs into her ex husband who has been her neighbor and in her life since childhood. But this doesn’t necessarily take the direction you think it will. I feel like this had a unique story to tell.
