I thought it was one of those light stories about a socially awkward characters who learn to live.
I was wrong as it's a poignant, emotionally charged, and compelling story that moved me to tears and made root for Lucy as I read about her changing.
It's well written and well told, you learn about Lucy's story and what made her become a recluse.
I smiled and sniffed, loved the fleshed out characters, and turned pages fast.
An engrossing and compelling novel.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
