A review by dalet66
Flying Solo by Linda Holmes

4.0

I picked this book up because I’m a fan of Pop Culture Happy Hour and Linda Holmes, and I knew she’d written a couple of novels. Through at least the first half, I was confident it was going to get three stars from me—light and pleasant, but nothing special. I still can’t say those descriptors are wrong, but I warmed to the characters, and I really enjoyed the gently non-traditional take on love and relationships. I can’t say I identify with everything Laurie does (and doesn’t) want in the book, but her middle-aged struggle to balance connection and independence resonates with me.
