It’s a beautiful book that uses the early part of the pandemic to create space for the narrator to tell her story to her daughters, her husband, and the reader.

There are enough twists and turns and surprises to keep the reader’s interest and to keep it from being just nice.

Toward the end, I was sure there couldn’t be more and that Patchett had missed the perfect point to end the story, but… no. There was more story to be told.

Excellent book, highly recommend. And now I feel like I need to read Our Town.
