This is definitely a 3.5 star read. A lovely story about grief and family. What those things mean together. As well as what âmoving onâ means. Loved Patrick and hood relationship with the kids. Caraâs storyline was a bit odd. I donât think Iâll read the others in the series but it was nice.
This was so sweet and adorable that I couldn't help but smile the whole time (and laugh because Patrick was honestly hilarious).
Such a cute, dynamic book. Loved the characters, plot, and the ending!! Loved hope funny and easy this book was!!
The concept of the book is great, there is always something for children to learn no matter who is raising them. Guncles underlining theme that mom really knew best in this situation was great. Even if Patrick couldn't see it in the moment. Sarah knowing that he would be the person to give the kids the break and new experiences out of their grief. The funny situations that the characters got it were so well written you could visualize being there right along side of them. I loved this book and can not wait to read what happens to this crew in the next one.
