Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan

3.5

This book is about doing the right thing, even though it might not be deemed as necassery or "your place". The books tells the story of a man born without a father, who is taken under the wing of a wealthier woman out of kindness, he grows up to be a hardworking family man. The writing is simple, but nice and I did enjoy the story, though it did lack a bit substance  and depth for me. Because the book is so short you cannot create this connection with the character as you usually do. The ending also felt a bit rushed, and i would have liked some more detail to the last scene, as I feel this is where the whole point of the book lies?
