I loved this book so much. It tackles- grief, loss, love, found family, not having a life of regrets, opening yourself up to new love and living y our authentic self.
The 7 old men had me laughing and swooning with their beautiful love stories. I also loved seeing the FMC come into her own and learn to stand on her own, tell her parents off and realize that she is worthy of love and happiness. There is LGBTQ rep with the book as 2 of the old men are gay and we get to see them experience their love stories too.
I felt ever emotion reading this book- anger, happiness, contentment, frustration and I sobbed big fat ugly tears.
CW: emotional abusive parents, death, loss, grief, homophobia
