Probably more of a 3.5⭐️ but I thought it deserved a round up. I like the idea that 2 grown women can meet as adults and form a special bond, that we are capable at any age of finding a connection that feels like home. It also was a good reminder that not everything is at it seems … people live and grow and change and make mistakes and sometimes have to face problems either self-created or handed down by the universe. I personally liked the sprinkle of Judaism (not any heavy handed religious touts) as I have strayed from my religion, but have fond memories of growing up in and around the synagogue. This slim novel did absolutely hold my attention, and this was my 3rd title by the author.
