I picked up this book because it was set in the upper part of Michigan and I am from Michigan so I was intrigued. This book is about a single mom who is just trying to do what is best for her daughter so when she is told that the house they are renting is being turned into a vacation rental she tries everything she can to find somewhere to live without changing her daughters whole world.

I really enjoyed the narration of this book. I like how it was written and I really like the main character and her daughter. I understand some people have pride and don‘t like to take the help when it is needed but I am not one of those people. I would have taken help from
Everyone who offered it. Especially if I have a child to look after. Overall I did like the book and I gave it a B+

“Happiness was a net - that was it. You had to build a life that happiness would snag in. When it did, you took it up and used it…then you put down the net again. Nothing guaranteed you‘d haul it up full every time. You wouldn‘t. But sometimes happiness would catch, and you‘d have what you needed, a least for a while.” This quote summarizes the book for me. Laurel struggled but kept laying her net. And was a nice reminder of our UP trip.
