A review by laupoeschl
The Loose Ends List by Carrie Firestone

4.0

I thought this book was wonderfully different and bittersweet. The premise of the "'death with dignity' cruise ship" was new, and surprisingly Firestone's writing was funny. At times I was laughing out loud, then the very next minute sobering as I remembered the ultimate goal of the ship and its passengers. Maddie was relatable, and Enzo was the perfect dreamy guy to sweep you off your feet in a heartbeat. The "instalove" (as some might classify it) didn't feel forced; the instant connection between two grieving individuals felt natural and as time went on, the relationship continued to grow. I would definitely recommend for a quick summer read on the beach.
