magzwright 's review for:

The Two Lives of Lydia Bird by Josie Silver
3.5
emotional hopeful reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes

it’s a fine book I just didn’t really connect with it. honestly I’m such a mood reader if I read this at a different time I probably would have loved it, but it just didn’t hit for me. the story was sweet (if a little predictable), and it was a beautiful portrayal of grief. I think my expectations were probably a bit too high after one day in december.
