While it’s a slow moving book, I found it really interesting and engaging. It sort of felt like tubing on a lazy river - not a rush and not necessarily a firm destination, but plenty to take in and you enjoy the process regardless. 

The story of John and Mary, their friends and their dogs was endearing, and relatable. There was a great focus on relationships, not giving up on each other, depending on each others’ strengths and finding purpose in what was important to them with the benefits or consequences of their choices. Each of the characters had such an interesting and unique perspective and process, and there was some great humor and dialogue. 

Also liked the narrator, I thought it was really well done. 

Thanks to Netgalley for the advanced copy of this audiobook. All opinions are mine.
