Easy read and shares interesting perspectives about life and transitions. Glad I read it but it’s not going to stay with me for very long since it’s not an in-depth book into Melinda’s life. She remains reserved and still private within this book.

https://cerebralspice.wordpress.com/2026/08/10/book-list-the-next-day-transitions-change-and-moving-forward-by-melinda-french-gates The Next Day premise that Gates offers is lovely and spot on, in my opinion. If you're facing any transition, you should read this.

A wonderful, short read. Full of vulnerability and relatability.
