Love After Love by Ingrid Persaud

5.0

Love After Love is a novel that can tear your heart out and make you gut laugh so hard your face hurts all on the same page. It is about family, the sort you are born into and the ones you are fortunate enough to find and accumulate. Betty, Solo, her son and Mr Chetan, their housemate that falls in love with them and vice versa. It is a quick read if you're not careful, short chapters and lyrical prose. But I found myself wanting to savour it. I did not want my time with these characters to end. I loved each of their perspectives, a rare thing to behold. Normally there is always a character I toil through to get to the preferred character's chapter. Not so with these 3. I happened to read this exactly when I needed it and that is a fortunate thing. It will definitely stay with me and has become a favourite.
