As always, another lovely story from Bridget Morrisey. This one took me a little bit to get into because even though I'd read the blurb at some point, I think I had assumed what was going to happen based on another book I read with a similar influence. This book is also sort of inspired by The Holiday (a movie I love) and in the other one the characters who switch homes eventually fall for each other so I figured they would here too, but this is more true to the source material where each person has their own love story and they interect. Once I did get more into it I enjoyed finding all the similarities (the older neighbor from show business, the other one falling for a sibling in the smaller town, etc.) but I loved how this one was the queer version! Eleanor leaves NYC after a mishap has her fired from her job, and she ends up in small town Illinois where she meets her swap mate's sibling Carson. Carson is NB and Eleanor has always enjoyed the company of anyone she finds attractive, and they connect immediately (aka hook up and then it builds to more). Tatum goes to NYC with June, who she's had feelings for for a long time but never acts on. There, she starts to feel less stuck than she has living in her hometown, like she wants to have a purpose. And she finds out June likes her too. The trips end and we get a bit of a time jump, and then another one after things resolve and I appreciated that since my one complaint about The Holiday is that it ends and we have no answers on how these people from across the ocean are going to make it work. Overall, not my fave by this author but still really enjoyed it. Also, it took me until literally 72% through to remember that all her books exist in the same universe and that I'd met some side characters before... so that was fun to figure out once I realized.
