A woman's dreams are shattered when the man she loves is killed in a car accident; she takes the broken pieces of her life and rebuilds her self a new, and unexpected, one.
I can't remember the last time I read a realistic novel with characters who are so...realistic. De Waal has created people who are so beautifully, messily human that I couldn't help but cry for their pains and cheer for their triumphs.
This is the first book I've read by Kit de Waal, but it definitely won't be the last.
Oh, and I think the original title, The Best of Everything, fits the book better than its American title.
