Oh. My. Grace Grows
was amazing. I know it’s only January, but
I’m pretty sure Shelle Sumners’s debut will be one of the best books I read
this year. It’s the incredibly touching
(I cried a lot) story of a nearing 30 woman who has a very easy relationship
with her live-in boyfriend. Steven
travels frequently, so Grace doesn’t see him very much and she’s happy with
that despite her friends and family’s reservations that she’s not head over
heels for him. Grace likely would’ve
been content with that had she not met her neighbor’s dog walker—an up and coming
charmingly attractive musician who starts writing songs about her. Tyler encourages Grace to go for more even
though her life is superficially perfect, but Grace always holds back until she
finally has a breakthrough and her entire life changes. Grace and Tyler were written so well that I
felt their every emotion (hence the tears).
I wanted their story to never end, but when it did, it was perfect.
5/5
