A Little Bit of Grace by Phoebe Fox
4.0
It’s been a year for poor Grace. First her husband left her because she was unable to have children, which she avoided dealing with by taking care of her mother in her failing health. Now her mom is gone, and her ex whom she stills shares the business with, is introducing her to his new girlfriend. His new pregnant girlfriend. When she receives a postcard from her moms Aunt that she never knew existed, Grace takes the opportunity to get away for a bit and meet the family she wishes she had always known.
This book made me laugh out loud at least 6 times. Like legit. Actually laugh out loud. Dave thought I was a crazy person. When they referred to a Brazilian wax as “stripping the taco” I almost cried I was laughing so hard! Anyway, this book was a great beach read, but had that little extra bit of substance that some beach reads don’t offer. I was so surprised to find out Millie’s secret, but it just made me love her and the entire book even more! The cast of characters Millie surrounded herself with was amazing and I just wanted to jump through the pages and join in on their fun! From page one I hated Brian. He broke up with Grace, yet kept her on a short leash with “friendship” and “as business partners.” It’s no wonder she was having trouble grieving for the loss of their marriage. This one was complete surprise book mail, and I just love when those turn into books I love! If this one isn’t on your radar and your looking to prolong the end of summer, I highly recommend it!
