pickI ended up loving this so much! It was heartbreaking at times, but so sweet and charming. I loved seeing Lanie grow, and the interactions between her and Ben. I especially like that the ex wasn't a bad guy, and in fact found his own ways the Happy.
About half way through this audiobook and I am loving it. The beginning was a tad choppy, but it is just so interesting!
“You say you don‘t know the right choice, but I think you do. The answer‘s already in you. You just have to find the courage to say it out loud.â€
"What I didn‘t know then was that every time you defer your dream, it grows a bit weaker, a little less urgent, until one day you‘ve all but forgotten it‘s there. Really, if Belle hadn‘t died, I wonder if anything about my life would‘ve changed. I didn‘t have what I really desired. But things were easy, and you can almost mistake that for happiness."
"Just think, each person you see has an entire life, filled with experiences and thoughts and people you‘ll never know about."
pickI should've read the description to this book better. I thought it would be a fun romance, but it was quite emotional as the main character's mom had Alzheimer's and some of the chapters were from her point of view. I loved those chapters, but they made me feel sad, as my own mom has mixed dementia. It was a sweet book about family, both natural and found, and second chances.
