pickJust finished this. Almost a so so. I had to speed read towards the end. I enjoyed the writing. The story line was ok.
Certainly not as enjoyable as Our Souls At Night. I would have liked to have met the author Kent. I think he might have been a very gentle kind man. His stories certainly come across as gentle and thoughtful.

If you like character driven novels, you will likely enjoy this. I usually need more action, but this was actually well paced. The backstories were good. I got invested in all their broken stories and how they converged.
Someone‘s had an exhausting day 🙃 Everyone is in bed, now mama can get some reading time in 📚
pickFinished in a day on Easter Monday. I‘m sure I‘ve read it before so possibly a reread for me. A sweet story except for the controlling son. It was the authors last book. Now to look out some other books by him. Hope I don‘t run into the usual from the library, available in ebook only!
pick“The Magic of Ordinary Days” movie was my comfort watch for years, but I‘ve never noticed it was a book.
I decided to read it now because we just drove through southern Colorado. Also Camp Amache recently became National Historic Site. I really enjoyed the book. Historical context was fascinating. I loved the romantic story line as well, but I felt it wrapped up a little too quick . The book is darker than the movie, but there‘s beauty in that.
