Aaack! Why do we keep handing our hearts over to Kristin Hannah for the breaking?
I'm probably late to the Firefly Lane world. I haven't watched the Netflix version so went in a bit blind and so glad I did.
I'm sure no one needs a summary, other than this is the story of "TullyandKate" spanning a thirty-year friendship.
From their meeting as teens in the 70s, through to their adult lives on very different paths, readers are taken from heartwarming to heartbreaking and back again.
It's a story for anyone who has ever experienced love, loss, the difficult dynamics between friends, mothers and daughters, and one's self against the world's expectations.
Recommended!
