Yeah, I realize and readily admit a couple of things re: this post.
No, (1) the purple trees likely have nothing to do with this book but I have been saving it for a Litsy post (yay!), and
(2) this title is not on the ToB long list. Oh well!
A friend that I highly respect offered this title to me and now, 25% in, I am loving it. Witty banter, woman with a big heart, on a mission to fulfill a promise made to her nonagenarian BFF? YAAAS - all in.
#ReadAway2024 I‘m not usually a romance reader but I really enjoyed this sweet story with parallel romances. It was a little, okay a lot, more spicy than I expected, but that‘s not a complaint. Romance for the sake of romance is boring. But this romance had a plot. Recommended.
This book is a very touching book that deals with loss, love, and healing. The narrator is on a journey of self-discovery and reconciliation while she is trying to cope with the memory of Mrs. Nash - a character from her past. Sarah Adler's writing was full of emotion and angst, expertly capturing the complications of melancholy and the power of human connections....

Modern take on "It Happened One Night"
Milli is on her way to Florida to bring part of her landlady's ashes to someone in hospice.
Hollis needs inspiration for his next novel and a week in Florida with his friend with benefits might help unblock his brain.
Flights are cancelled and they go on a road trip where Milli shares the story of Mrs Nash' Ashes and Hollis' ice encrusted heart might warm towards one specific pigeon.
This is the third book I‘ve read in a row with a love interest who has heterochromia…. Isn‘t it weird and fun when that happens?
I did a HUGE book haul last week (also got my new locally made super cute orange bag) and have been plowing thru so many good ones during my long weekend. I never want to go back to work 😆
