Sweet second chance romance 💙

Revisado: 03-02-22

I adored this story.

I loved the characters, the setting - the whole story.

There's something really special about rekindling a romance years later.

The narrator delivered the story beautifully.

Charming, sweet, encouraging 🧡💚💙

Revisado: 01-31-22

I wouldn't expect anything else from Lauren Graham.

I adored most of the story - especially Franny's father. Such a sweet supportive man.

I listened to the audiobook, which is narrated by Lauren Graham. She did a lovely job.

Lily + Sailor = 💖🧚‍♀️🐽

Juliet Blackwell + Xe Sands = A Golden Duo

Juliet Blackwell always delivers a magical mystery full of charm & heart.

I adore Lily and the gang.

I was so excited for this book as, given the title, I was so excited to celebrate with her.

We do get to celebrate...but not enough. Not for me at least.

I loved the mystery. I just wish we had had more to celebrate.

More Lily.& more Sailor.

Still, I loved this story. 4/5 💛

Xe did a wonderful job - as always. Her voice adds to the mystery and ambiance. She's become my favorite narrator.

Heartwarming 💖💖💖

Revisado: 07-31-21

I loved so much about this story - the importance placed on family & standing up for yourself.

Such beautiful & timeless topics.

What I had a hard time with was the miscommunication...so much miscommunication, or lack of communication.

I still loved it & would definitely recommend.

Charming & Delightful 💕

Revisado: 07-07-21

I'm on a cozy mystery kick and found this story to be charming and delightful.

A late 20 something starting over and finally putting roots down in a new-to-her town, while solving a murder with the help of a cute ghost - yes, yes, yes!

So much to love! 💕🌟

Revisado: 05-31-21

There is so much to love about this book.

Lauren Graham did a lovely job at describing her journey to a full time career as an actress. She also provides some lovely words of encouragement to those following a similar path.

As a fan of Gilmore Girls, chapters dedicated to the show were especially interesting to me.

I listened to the audio book, which is beautifully narrated by Lauren Graham.

I don't have the physical book so I missed out on all the references to her photos. This is why I am giving it 4/5 stars. I wish they were included as a PDF file.

I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a bit of inspiration on pursuing their dream job - it takes a lot of hard work, of course - and anyone looking for insights on the Gilmore Girls from a firsthand perspective.

3/5 🌟

Revisado: 05-27-21

...I wasn't as big a fan as I was expecting to be...I think that's why I can't give this more than a three out of five.

I have read Leigh Bardugo's short stories. They are wonderfully vivid and memorable. Highly recommend those.

This story, to me, wasn't what I expected. I felt little for these characters, which really surprised me.

The plot didn't captivate me.

The love story felt, off...or flat.

I think it's a me thing...

A physical copy would have gotten 5/5

Revisado: 05-15-21

I read this as an audiobook.

Jen is brilliant at her delivery in all of her books.

However, given how the book is meant to be used - day by day - I found it challenging to follow as an audiobook.

I also didn't find it as inspiring as her first few books.

This might be because I've been reading more books in the topic of habit development, hence many of her points seemed...familiar.

I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for advice on habit development.

Jen is a wonderful writer and coach. I find her approach delightfully inspirational and manageable.

I will be investing in a physical copy in the near future.

Hilarious & Timeless 💕

Revisado: 04-26-21

Oh my goodness...this story is timeless and hilarious.

I feel seen and heard.

It made me anxious at times hearing how Becky spent money but that's how it is when your dealing with bad spending habits - "This is the last thing I need. No more spending after this very essential purchase."

I also loved how much of a financial expert Becky is even though she continuously refutes her expertise.

As someone who graduated with a degree she found incredibly dull and boring - Finance - I can relate.

If you are looking for a book that makes you laugh while teaching you a little about personal finance, pick up this book. You'll be hooked.

Btw, did you know that Sophie Kinsella was once a financial journalist? It explains so much!

Lovely but lonely 💔

Revisado: 04-26-21

This story was quite lovely, but I found it challenging to progress sometimes as I would find myself feeling quite lonely.

I loved the story's progression of time and seeing Bess in various occupations. But, just as I started loving where the story was going, we would get a setback and loneliness would ensue.

I think that if I were in a stronger state of mind, I would have enjoyed it a lot more.

The storytelling and narration were enjoyable, hence my 3 star rating.
