Super good book, very deep topics, would recommend...

3.5 stars. This book kept popping up on my radar as an emotional romance that I ultimately listened to on audio via Libby. The strengths of this book are in FMC Nadia’s clear voice and the lupus representation. I struggled with the believability of Marco’s character. While I was interested in the time-limited romance of dating just for the month of May, the love story felt a bit too intense for the rather playful premise and came off as instalove at times.

I could read it all day

We love Calvin and Hobbes!

I think this book was really interesting because it shows one of the many endings in this series. It's very detailed and one of my favorite endings. I like it because the ending because this happened because of a coincidence.

We enjoyed this trip to India with Jack and Annie. It was interesting to learn about endangered species like tigers and rhinoceroses.

Great book!

At the insistence of her ex, writer Lucy Barton leaves NYC at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and moves with him to a seaside house in Maine. There they spend weeks in lockdown, visiting their children only sporadically. We see pandemic restrictions through their eyes: empty store shelves, masking, washing hands - and clothes after a trip to the grocery store - and distrust of outsiders. As weeks turn to months, each ponders their shared future, their past in NYC, and the complications and unhappy surprises as 2020 becomes 2021. Readers need not have read other Strout novels to enjoy this book, but those who have already met Lucy will appreciate this deep dive into her life.

This book was full of adventure, action and mythical creatures. I really loved it!

Hard to get through with the repetitive descriptive language but the plot was good.
