I picked up this book on a whim, and I’m so glad I did. It made me both laugh and cry, and it was full of wonderful characters you could really fall in love with.
The mystery element underpinning the story was also very well done. I can’t say more without giving a spoiler, but a difficult topic was handled with grace and empathy.
