Given that this is the 9th book in this series I can't really tell you a whole lot so I'll just say, wow. This one did not disappoint and I couldn't put it down. I saved this book to read while I was healing from surgery and it was perfect. I was able to escape and weirdly enough, parts of the story really helped with my emotional healing. If you are a fan of this series (which, if you're at book 9 I would hope you are), you are really going to love this one.

This book counts for Popsugar 2022 for a book with a misleading title.

**it's been 84 years**

I've missed these goobers so so much. I love these characters, and seeing them again brought me so much joy. This one ranks high in my "outlander scale;" a good story, beautiful family moments, beautiful healing from past hurts, all the angst and humor and drama and domesticity that comes with these stories. I'm so happy, and now I can't wait to reread some of my favorite passages from past books again ❤❤❤❤
