I’d heard this book described as uplifting, and I can see why, but it left me feeling sad.
What I did enjoy, was the community moments in this book, mostly centred around the bookshop, and the moments of goodness.

‘Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow’ is a better book, but I found this to be more enjoyable.
