This was so lovely, so sweet, so cozy. A story of a found family and the love that expands to the stars. I am sad, and happy, and hopeful.

4/5 stars

This was a gentle, easy read. Nothing that will stay with me forever, but I’m glad I read it.

I loved every charming word of this book, from the first to the last. Every character, every achingly beautiful storyline, everything. LOVE.

This was a sweet and heartwarming story I read for a book club. However, as much as this book got glowing reviews from others, I just didn’t find it unique at all. It was a simple and quick read.

Lovely

So heartwarming. What a treat to read a book about kind people who love each other only because they want to do so.

This has got to be the loveliest story I have read in a very long time. Berg has a way of writing that brings every detail in the story to life. I can vividly picture Arthur, Mandy, Lucille and even Nola! I could see Arthur in the cemetery, could see him waking in, stopping and graves and then sitting with Nola. Mandy, well it was not difficult to see her pain, live her pain.

I love ELizabeth Berg’s book and am starting the second book in this series right now!
