Thanks Book Sparks for the gifted review copy!
I devoured this book. Right off the bat, I was invested in all of these characters' lives and wanted to know their fates. It felt like I was watching a television show, getting the scoop on these people and seeing the aftermath of their decisions.
This book is very profound. The idea that we are made of stars is so fitting for this story. It brings together people from all walks of life. But don't let "profound" deter you from this book! It makes you think but in a good way!
There are some heavy topics covered in this book: substance abuse, death of a child, fertility struggles, cheating, and others. Please look up triggers before reading.
My words don't even do this book justice. I loved that there were multiple POVs from each character, I loved the setting of an inn, I loved that these characters all intertwined in some way, secrets were revealed, found family is huge in this one.... Everything about this book made my heart sing. The character development was amazing.
If you enjoy character driven stories, this book is for you! The people are likable (well, everyone but Adam and Cassidy) and their stories are relatable. You may cry (I teared up a little), and you may throw this book across the room. It is beautifully written, and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a book that will make them feel something.
