Great so far

My book club suggested read for the month. Need to finish it by Sunday for the meet and discussion. What you reading?

will i finish this book in time for bookclub on wednesday? who knows… what i do know is a get incredibly sleepy while reading this book

I wish

such a cliche but strong message: your perspective on someone’s life is not always their reality

book felt rushed.. they randomly went on vacation for 10 pages?? ending felt forced & the love story made no sense.

I didn’t feel a connection to any of the characters besides when Julian (80yo) might have died

this book was so tough to get through

getting bored.. gonna start reading another book along with this one to keep my momentum going & hopefully i’ll want to pick this one up as the day goes on

Un vrai réconfort ce livre 🩵

so far so good, not itching to keep picking it up but it’s a cute little story

Julian, the old man, is the sweetest guy ever, my heart breaks every time they mention his former wife

COLOR CODING!!!! I’m dead loool

This Monica is THE Monica Gellar loooool

LMFAO liar 😭😭😭 of course

keep forgetting to read this bc it hadn’t hooked me and the british stuff is honestly really hard to muscle through. they *might* have hooked me now… but i feel like i see where this is going!

audiobook voice is british but trying to give it a chance anyway

Hazard and Monica praise the lord!!! And thank god Alice left max!! It’s getting so good like aaaaa I thought it was going to be a bad ending but it’s gonna be so good!!!

Mary isn’t dead!!! Julian lied. And idk if I feel sorry for him bc he’s lonely or if I hate home bc he drove his wife away and told people that she died. Also, he lied about his age. What else has he been lying about. And Hazard might have a crush on Monica and idk how to feel about it bc Riley is great! Aaaaa!!!

He was sober for 5 months. Noooooo!!! And now Monica is blaming herself for it. But thank god for Riley!!! If he and Monica don’t work out I’ll cry

I canttttttt!! It’s toooo good!!! I’m so obsessed with this book!!! I want this book to be my life :)

SAY WHAAAAAT?!?!???!!!!?? jaw just detached from my face

SAY WHAAAAAT !!!! jaw just FELL to the floor

DNF

could definitely read this all rn but i'm so sleepy

I am OBSESSED

So far a very good slice of life story. Enjoyable read.

Kyrkogården var en av Monicas favoritplatser - en tidlös oas av lugn mitt i stadens brus.

Sometimes I really need books like this - well written, easy (maybe predictable, but that’s not bad) reads that I just enjoy binging.
Written with warmth.

okay wait the most insane plot twist just happened-

😭

i’m getting bored

i'm really going to try and finish this book this time 💕
