Reading this book feels exactly like getting stuck in a Hallmark movie. The magical realism of this book is immersive and you can visual the whole town. The pacing felt quite slow. It felt that there wasn’t much plot so the book would’ve benefitted from a faster pace. I also wish the “twist” was more surprising. It felt too clear from early on. I did enjoy Anders and Elsy’s love story. I wish we got to experience Anders POV. I think seeing him work through his grief would’ve made for a more compelling read. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoyed Ashley Poston’s previous books.
