Okay listen, everyone who is an avid reader and loves books needs to read this book. It is such a beautiful tribute to why we love books and how they have the power to bring people together. This book discusses the depths of loneliness and the lengths that people will go for human connection when feeling starved.
I loved the discussions between the characters, the curmudgeon of the group and the banter that happened with all of the characters with him was just everything, parenting and how sometimes the more you want to hold on to your children you lose them more, grief, putting up walls to protect yourself, wanting to re-connect with family you want in your life and power of friendship and love just made me so happy.
I cannot emphasis enough to pick up this book.
