Not a genre I’d necessarily choose, but I’d heard so much about this I wanted to read for myself and so took part in a Buddy Read.

It took me a while to settle into the story. It’s a slow pace and very character driven, but it’s so full
of love and hope that it ended up completely charming me. 

The story is one of belonging. Of finding happiness and love. And it’s wonderfully told. The character of Linus, who at first I thought was a wet lettuce, grew on me to the point I wanted to cheer him on. 

A gorgeous, comforting story with a fantastic cast of very unusual characters!
