“Lenny, the stakes are low with you because you are the most loyal person I know. You’re fully on my team. Now that you’re here, there’s very little I could do to kick you out. I don’t have to worry about losing you. I can just….relax.”
This story is so beautiful. There’s so many layers and aspects to it. Life after grief, friendship, love, family dynamics, stepping out of our comfort zones. Watching Lenny move through her grief was heart wrenching, but necessary for her growth as a character. And I absolutely loved Miles & the way he transformed from judgemental of Lenny, to understanding her & helping her through her journey. I think we can all relate to being too quick to judge someone without knowing the full story, and then changing our tune once we know everything. And as always, Alex Finke absolutely crushes the narration. She’s incredibly talented & fully embodies the character through her narration.
If you want a story that shows a journey of grief, watching a family be put back together, and seeing two people help each other & fall in love, this story is for you.
