Book #135 of 2024: There aren't many Courtney Walsh books that remain unread for me. I enjoy her books! It's about time I started this duo. Huge kudos to both narrators. They used such great inflection, dynamics, and both were solid in both male and female characters. 

This is a unique story with a road trip that has more meaning than we think. It becomes clear to the reader that these two people need each other. They're like puzzle pieces that haven't found their best fit. YET. 

The trip causes them to face a lot of things, including their own mistakes and assumptions. Sometimes you want to shake one or both of them in aggravation or to just wake them up to the obvious. 

The best part of the novel for me is when they get to Will's parents' place. The gift given to his grandfather and then the moment at the dinner table are just precious beyond words. 

There are many laughs in this novel but also moments where you'll need a tissue (or six!) for tears, too.
