I’ve been sitting on this review for a few days because I wanted to think on it a bit.

I read this on my kindle and I usually only read on my kindle before bed so I don’t read as fast as when I listen to my audiobooks. But I looked forward to reading this every night. It was my favorite read of the year. 

This book is warm and fuzzy and a little sad but more in a pull your heartstrings way than anything else. It made me laugh and it made me a little teary-eyed. 

The cast of characters is super diverse: a woman with Down Syndrome, an old man with dementia, a guarded punk dude with a mohawk, and a woman trying to get pregnant via IVF. Plus, it takes place in London!
