I really appreciate the depth of Leigh Garrett’s characters. Both characters are mourning a loss— admittedly one’s is much greater than the other’s— and both are really in need of a friend. I quite enjoyed this gentle little story about finding love and friendship. Although it deals with some heavy issues, it’s done in Garrett’s typically generous and compassionate style that never weighs down the narrative. Huge plus that there’s no unnecessary angst or drama in some contrived form. Every challenge felt organic and real to the characters.
