Pretty good semi-humorous story of a twenty-something girl with a dysfunctional family and an obsession with the book, Treasure Island. Parts are kind of gritty for a funny book, but I mostly liked it.

Could not resist starting ANOTHER book that looked appealing. I like the idea of it.

This is so far proving to be more of a read that I can get into. 😚

What a quietly moving book. Wood has brought these three characters to life in such a real way that it's almost hard to believe I won't run into them in my local bookshop. This book is full of nuance and thoughtfulness and is just a really lovely story.

I have been trying SO HARD to manage my library holds so that they don‘t all come in at once. How is that working out for me, you ask? Well. It‘s a good thing it‘s a long weekend.

Empathy and love are woven through this lovely story. With the world so negative and hateful, this story reminds us of the importance or caring for each other. Even for those that some believe don‘t deserve it. I adored this story🥰.

I did not like this one. The words treacly and twee come to mind. It starts out ok but the blurb makes this sound like a found family story which doesn‘t happen until well past the half way point. There is a very cringey plot point that was unnecessary and creepy. I actually hate finished it.

Oh how I loved this book! I read it 4 book club. There‘re 3 POVs: a young woman who inadvertently kills a woman in a drunk driving accident & is sent to prison; the woman leading the prison book club; & the widower of the woman that was killed. They all converge in an independent bookstore in Portland, Maine & it goes from there. One thing I didn‘t like was a cliche plot line; otherwise this book is perfection! I highly recommend it!

This book could come across as too sweet, but I found I really enjoyed it. I think it is useful to examine what the purpose of the justice system is - is it meant just to punish or do we really want people to become rehabilitated members of society. The themes of love and forgiveness are also explored in a gentle, lovely story.
