This is classic Abbi Waxman banter mixed with callbacks to The Bookish Life of Nina Hill, massaged into a new contemporary that will make you smile. We follow Laura, a physical therapist new to LA, who moves into a co-op after a breakdown in a bookstore. Here we meet a giant cast of characters, including impossibly handsome Bob. I loved the match between Laura and Bob - a PT and a gardener doesn't make sense in the conventional romance, but here it was all coming up roses. While this book is certainly uplifting, it's not without tough topics. We discuss toxic relationships, PTSD, and more, all within what feels like a safe space. I'd recommend this book to anyone who needs a pick-me-up and loves a PoV that allows you to be in everyone's head at once.
