This book absolutely holds up to its beautiful cover. I am typically not a short story gal but this book won me over early and often. I loved how a secondary character from each story then became the main character for the next. It kept the pace steady without feeling like you had to reorient every few pages. 

This would be the perfect vacation or airport read. The writing is beautiful but still easy to follow. You learn enough about each character to feel invested in their story yet enough is left unsaid the reader could imagine many scenarios as time unfolds. I never wanted the book to end.
