4.5 ⭐️ TJR does it again with another amazing book! I loved Seven Husbands so much and this is a close contender. I love the time jumping from Mick and June to the siblings current lives. I don’t think she introduced a lot of characters for the party and at times it was hard to remember who they were and why they were important. I do think she has a great writing style and was able to easily switch between each chapters seamlessly without leaving you confused. I also love how she connects characters from each of her other books.
Ugh poor Junie she really just wanted someone to love and cherish her. Unfortunately she married Mick the prick :(. I just wish for all she said about loving her kids, her actions proved those words but they didn’t. I do like the parallel she created between Nina and June in regard to their husbands. I felt bad for Nina at time and felt her siblings didn’t fully understand the hardships she endured with her father and mother at such a young age. I felt Kit was relatable in wanting to be understood and seen for who she is and her ability to adapt. Her struggle with self discovery and acceptance is real. Nina was also relatable as a big people pleaser and her need for perfection and the stress she puts on her shoulders.
I liked the premise of Laura’s character but I’m not really sure what she added. Brandon gave Art from Challengers vibes. I also don’t like how public he made his apology to Nina to take him back. I do get why she fell in love with him tho she really just wanted someone to care for her, something uncomplicated and easy. I really really loved the relationship the sibling had it was so heartwarming. It was also great to see all the emotional and personal growth they had throughout the book. The resolution was just top tier.
