I really enjoyed this book.
Tig's life is falling apart. Her mother has dementia, her boyfriend takes off to Hawaii without her, and her sister has her baby then leaves her with Tig.

When you say ‘I love you‘, do you mean it like a promise, or do you mean it like, ‘I feel this right now, but things might change tomorrow ‘?

I really enjoyed this book. The characters were flawed yet likeable.

This book was delightfully cute and funny. Even though it broached some heavy subjects, Garvin handles them in such a light and breezy way that you never lose the smile this book gives you. Lots of deep wisdom and good advice without coming off preachy. Very easy reading and a pleasant break from reality.

I really enjoyed this book, although I was slightly disappointed with the ending. It's one of those endings that you just have to use your imagination, lol I was left hoping there's a second book, maybe there will be. Sounds weird to say, but the book has stiff pages, felt fancy. ****stars

It's a delight when you read something by an unfamiliar author and find yourself chuckling as you read it. Enjoyed the characters a great deal. Apparently the author and I have a similar sense of humor.

lovelybookshelf I really enjoyed this one! 8y
shawnmooney This one sounds great! 8y

Finishing books and making mail, yay! I enjoyed this book. I feel like I could audition for the part of Tig, gosh, I do too much just like she does while missing the obvious things that need my attention right under my nose! This book put the fun back in dysfunctional...oh family, the best the worst

This is part of the dog literacy program called peanut reads. Peanut knows a lot of people that he likes just fine when they're not around

kathryncraft Can't wait to see what all Peanut likes to read! So cute. 9y
peaKnit I really enjoy this, and can relate to Tig altogether too much:)! Thank you! 8y
