What an absolutely beautiful book. I think this actually may be my favorite book now.

This is about a woman named Alice who, on her 40th birthday, finds herself transported back to her 16th birthday. This book is so sweet, reflective and sentimental. The storyline focuses on Alice’s relationship with her father (which is so tender) and how she consistently goes back in time to spend more time with him—seeking answers, but also just to be in his presence.

This book truly makes me appreciate life so much more. It encourages me to be more in the moment and now to take time for granted because it is so fleeting. Highly recommend this read.

It isn’t super fast-paced and it took me a while to actually start it, but it was well-worth the read.
