Molly Ringwald wove an interesting web that centers around a separation. All the characters were written beautifully; they were flawed and human in all of their thoughts and emotions. My favorite was the titular story, “When It Happens To You.” I love how, as a reader, I assumed I was reading a second-person POV story, but it became a direct address. That turn took my breath away, and when I finished, I had to close the book and sit for awhile to think and absorb. I was pleasantly surprised by this book – can't wait for another one from Molly Ringwald.
