This novel was a joy and a delight to read. The narration was excellent. The characters were well thought out, funny, and authentic. It’s a lighthearted story though it does center around death of a father, so watch for that if you’re feeling sensitive to it. It’s a wonderful tale about honoring love and our loved ones, of returning to a hometown with a complicated history, of hoping for healing. The town is its own character and I adore when that happens.
