I hope that this means 2023 is going to be a great reading year because I kicked off the year with a 5 star read!! I own a few books by Lisa J, but I'd never read any of them and this one was randomly chosen for me (from my TBR game), so it randomly became my first read of 2023, and I could not be more pleased.
We have three different timelines told by three different women and they all come together and converge at just the perfect moment. I thought the pacing was great in here. Also, the look at all the different relationships that these women experienced from parental to romantic and all the friendships in between was just so well done. I really enjoyed this book and could not put it down once I hit the halfway mark (which is why I finished it so quickly!) :) Here's to many more Lisa J books for me and to many more great reads in 2023! Happy New Year!
