Having absolutely loved May from The Inn on Sweet Briar Lane, I was so excited for Return to Cherry Blossom Way. Han and May instantly got me. I loved the ways May is struggling to reconcile her dreams with the feeling of being at home. Being stuck back in her old ways and these old relationships, and the pain. And how Han feels like he's so close to striking out on his dreams and seeing his path diverge. Han and May felt like such fully fleshed characters on their own. Because at the end of the day, what happens when we have achieved our dreams but it's not what we thought? Or we have given up on a vision of our future, only for us to have lingering questions? If you love those ideas, then you have to read Return to Cherry Blossom Way.
