I LOVED THIS SO MUCH. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was a beautiful story of timing and growth and self discovery, while also navigating grief and loss and being lost amidst it all. I loved our Lemon girl so so much, especially her quirks & courage, that most of us girls can relate to learning to embrace through the years. And Iwan, with his charm & his journey to discovering the strength of being yourself; how could these two be any more loveable? And that doesn’t include all of the other incredibly filled out characters, especially of the older women and their impact. I will say no more. A story of love, friendship, & journeying home to oneself & their heart, this novel made me laugh, cry, & kick my feet. I know this will be a story I keep with me for years to come & look forward to my future adventures back to this book.
