Wish I Were Here
by Melissa Wiesner
4.5 stars
Opposites attract in this fun magical realism romance between a cinnamon roll doorman and an (overly) organized professor. This was a fun story about finding out who you are (because your whole identity disappears) and how important community really is. Luca was a perfect book boyfriend with his helpful manner and how he cares for the elderly residents. And I connected with Catherine in her always-too-early manner and hyper organized schedule. But you could feel she needed something to mess up her routine and for her to learn that it can still be okay if not everything goes to plan. I loved her growth through the story and it felt like a natural arc given the plot. Overall, I had a good time and the magical realism was very light.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC!
