Tw: parental abandonment, emotional abuse, cursing, family death, parental infidelity
I adored Funny Feelings, so I was excited to read an ARC of The Co-Op.
Two kids who fell in love a decade ago meet again after loosing their grandmas. They are tossed together when they have a common goal of fixing up the duplex their grandma’s owned.
I found the story to be very charming. I loved the pacing and steadiness of the plot. The characters were solid and had great emotional arcs. The side characters were very cute.
I especially adored the epilogue.
Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for an eARC of this book. All opinions are my own.
