Spice: None (💋 only)

Everything’s Coming Up Rosie is a heartfelt story about dreams, new beginnings, and all the messy moments in between. Rosie, a struggling actress in New York City, is forced to face the reality that her big-city acting career may never take off. Nearly bankrupt and out of options, she accepts a job in a small-town in Wisconsin to help stage a production of Cinderella. What she doesn’t expect is that her cast will consist entirely of residents from a retirement community.

As Rosie navigates this unexpected detour, she’s pushed to confront her emotions, reevaluate her dreams, and consider what comes next. With the unlikely support of a grumpy stage manager, a brooding teenager, and a kind-hearted physical therapist, Rosie finds herself on a journey to save the theatre program—and maybe rediscover her own passion in the process.

Courtney Walsh masterfully captures the emotional tug-of-war that comes with feeling stuck in life and uncertain about the future. This is a moving, introspective read that explores the vulnerability of letting go and the courage it takes to forge a new path.

While the story has a slow start, it quickly builds momentum, and by a few chapters in, I was completely hooked.

I highly recommend Everything’s Coming Up Rosie to anyone who enjoys stories of self-discovery and the unexpected beauty of change.
