Lia does it again! I’m still swooning over this story (and let's be honest, my tommy button. Hello new book boyfriend!!)
Lia’s stories are never really *light* and this one was no different, but they are all so amazing. Natalie, a young widower, is trying to find her place again after her husband’s sudden death. She’s trying to find her spark, and along the way she makes new friends and meets new people who help her get there.
This is one of those books where you theorize a bit, because you’re not sure what’s going to happen, and I’ll say, I didn’t figure out the twist, so it’s definitely not a predictable plot line.
I really loved all the characters in this book, I love that she was a regular at a coffee shop, and had names for the other regulars. I love the complexities of her friends and how their dynamics have changed over time, it all felt very realistic.
This is a lovely story about grief, loss, hope, strength and love. I’m so happy I got a chance to read it. Thank you Netgalley and Atria for the advanced copy.
