I am a skeptical reader of books that are described to me as "amazing, wonderful, can't miss" but this one really does live up to the hype. The writing is beautiful, the characters feel real, the story has engaing twists, and the idea of parents having a life before their children exist is something everyone can relate to. If summer theater, Michigan cherries, and family dynamics appeal to you this is a good book option.
