I feel empathetic to the feeling of getting to a point in life where you realize you've spent so much energy making yourself safe that you forget to check if your happy

That said, I wasn't buying the resolution of this pairing, many of the solutions to communication issues they had were for her to just get over it? The writing was nothing special but the plot was well structured and kept the story moving. I liked the  focus on the less touristy parts of Long Island. Overall a nice "beach read" to flip through even on dry land.
