“…real things were always harder but that a real life was always better lived.”
This is fundamentally a book about grief, trauma, resilience and healing, wrapped in a sapphic holiday romance-Jewish-“Will they save the farm?!” bow. The trimmings made the book interesting and heartwarming, but truly what will make or break a person’s feelings about this book will be whether they find the characters relatable and can invest in their story of recovery and hope.
CW: family of origin trauma, financial abuse, parental death (off page), grief, alcoholism.
