Quirky. Tender. Reflective.

So much can change in just three days. Gail finds herself out of a job, reunited with her ex-husband, and a mother of a bride in crisis. 

I’m a sucker for an odd character, and even more so when that character wrestles with life in an authentic manner. Gail was such an endearing MC, vibrant and wholly eccentric. 

The dynamics between her and the other characters—in particular her ex and the cat he fostered—led to a sweet and heartfelt storyline that featured unexpected growth and led to a charming culmination. 

It’s true that I’m almost never fully satisfied with a short story. And while I loved the bones of this story, I admit to, again, wanting more. I wasn’t ready for this one to end and craved a deeper dive into these three days in June. 

Still, this was a refreshing, hope-filled read that gave me a much-needed break from the chaos of life. 

🎧Succession actress, J Smith Cameron, crafts an intimate portrayal of our MC, Gail, that is imbued with wit and heart. This sensitive and reflective depiction well honed the essence of the novel and delivered a standout audiobook listen.
