So I didn't realize it was a book of short stories... I probably would not have chosen this one too read. I like a book with one storyline. There were commonalities between the stories, but I like the character development.

A cute little collection of short stories. None of them stand out or are particularly memorable, but it was an easy and simple read.

I really liked Paris for one, but I didn't care for any of the other short stories.

I have heard about Jojo Moyes books a lot, and I have watched Me Before you. The author takes on self exploratory angsty themes, which are not one of my favourite themes, as I am a bit sensitive to angst, but I have been curious, so when I came across this short book, I decided to give it a try.
The writing kinda blew me away, as it was really refreshing. It was a short one but packed a punch. It explored so many themes, like being ordinary, a feeling of wanting to add flavor to a relationship, making peace with who you are, and everything doesn't need to have an end, making it a full circle exploratory journey for any reader who picks this up.
And the best bit was the author making it rough on the edges, which added more realness to the book as I kept reading. Sometimes I tend to feel like an old school reader expecting an ending, so I got really curious how this was going to pan out at the end, as its so short, the ending did not disappoint.
Book Recommendation - Hell Yeah
