Wow this book is so moving and emotional in the best way! Alison did an excellent job weaving in the grief, humor, and love throughout the story with what truly is the perfect balanced ratio. You will find yourself laughing and crying within the same chapter. While I liked Logan and Rosemary and how they evolved throughout the story as individuals while coming back together, the real star of the show is their relationship with Joe. Joe! What is there to say? That man was such a beautiful soul who deeply loved Logan and Rosemary. He Tuesdays at Morrie’ed the shit out of them overtly and discretely, making it his mission for his girls to be okay and to have each other when he was gone. I loved that they had this fun cross country adventure as the backdrop, it was a nice juxtaposition of light spontaneity in the face of impending loss and grief. I could not put it down because it was so enthralling (mild regrets now because it’s over). This book is a must read!
