Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan
4.0
emotional reflective sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I was not expecting it to be this small! I was in awe of how I was quickly able to fall into the story and appreciate the characters in only like 20 pages. Keegan truly has a magical way with words and how she can convey such a deep, beautiful story without needing to say much. I can't help but wish it WAS slightly longer, but I understand why it ended where it did. I'm excited to see how they adapted this to film.
