While the massive amounts of beer Info was a bit much at times I think it was perfect for the book that this was working to be. I loved Edith and was so sad that her relationship with Helen was so fraught with distance and lack of communication. I didn’t like Helen at all and was mad at her pretty much the whole book. I loved the ending but know I would never have been so accepting as Edith was. Loved the found beer family and how finding your passion can bring your life on the right path.
