Happiness for Beginners by Katherine Center
2.0

I love Katherine center and will continue to read anything she writes buuuut this was not a favorite for me.... I'm not sure if I just wasn't in the mood for a rom com as quirky as Katherine Centers usually are or what. I wasn't really rooting for the main characters at all throughout the book. Their actions were so confusing, and I strongly disliked the whole Windy situation. It felt messed up to do to Windy as well as Helen. 

Also, I felt like there were still loose ends to tie up. Like the relationship and resentment towards her mother after learning what really happened. And some sort of closure for her divorce; I feel like ignoring one phone call kind of leaves that unfinished still. 

I did like the theme of how we shouldn't be taking nature for granted and trying to enjoy more of what we already have. The earth can survive without us but we cannot survive without it.
