I accidentally stumbled across this book and I was blown away. This books offers a refreshing perspective that was absolutely captivating. 

I loved seeing an older character be nuanced, sassy, hilarious, and human. It was a relationship focused book that never dulled in pace. Focusing on the regrets of the past and how grief runs on its own time, it is a novel that I’d recommend to all literary fiction lovers. 

I related to the main character so much. She is a complex, real character who you are rooting for but simultaneously frustrated by. 

I would say people may relate it to The Thursday Murder Club due to the age of the characters, but I would say it is very different. It captures charm without a convoluted storyline so that it can focus on the story of one realistic life and the beautiful intersections it has with other peoples.

I listened to it on audiobook with Libby and can’t recommend it enough
