Don't Forget to Write by Sara Goodman Confino
4.75
adventurous funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced

Super good! I just adored both Ada and Marilyn as individuals and the relationship that they formed was super sweet.

Marilyn ends up getting sent to her Great Aunt Ada after a kissing incident at synagogue. Ada is a matchmaker and Marilyn will help her find matches for eligible young women. 

The start is rocky but both these women give and get as good as each other. Marilyn comes to love Ada and vice versa while Ada also encourages Marilyn to pursue her own life of her own making as a writer and not get tied down in marriage if that's what she wants. 

The ending was perfect and I was just happily smiling as it played out! I guessed two things there and I was right, but I want those reading my tenure to read it and see if they can figure it out too.

I loved this book and was so sad to have finished it but loved being in it for every moment!
