I've given it a star rating, but I'm not sure if that accurately reflects the book. Of course that's always difficult, but I'm struggling to rate this book in particular. I think this was a well-written book, but it's marketed the wrong way, which influenced my reading experience a lot. I went into this expecting a romcom-like book, it's marketed as a romance and tagged as funny or happy in most places, but that's not what the book is about. As a story about a woman navigating her life with a mother with dementia and how that's impacting her and her whole family it's doing a great job with a bonus of some romance. But I picked this up because I wanted to read a fun romance book and then the mood is just not what I expected. For most of this book everyone is pretty miserable, the ending is as sweet as it can be in this situation, but still bittersweet. It's a good book, but know it's more about a complex sickness and family situation then a light sweet romance as the description implies.
