All Rhodes Lead Here by Mariana Zapata

5.0

Not kidding when they say slow burn… but I thought it was worth it. I related to the daughter who lost a mom aspect. A lot of Aurora’s grieving was so familiar. When she has her (what I call) “grieving breakthrough” on one of her hikes.. it gutted me. It felt a little therapeutic to think of my mom in the spots she thought of hers.
If this book doesn’t make you want to find a little cute town and start hiking… I don’t know what will. I related to Aurora with the bats and mice but i also thought out Amazon of their hiking gear.. and I don’t even live close to trails.
How can we not mention Mr Rhodes. Hello “grumpy sunshine” book.. I didn’t realize that was what I liked reading.. but I’m not mad. Mr Rhodes… hello, yes please! I love the grumpy, has walls up, really a softie on the inside, rugged, protective guy. Mr. Rhodes was all that in a uniform!
5/5 and adding it to the re read shelf because of how relatable it was to her grieving. I took a lot of quotes from this book so it earns its spot on that shelf. And I loved the ending! Perfect ending!
