With Love from Wish & Co.

This one is weird one for me. There was 50% I enjoyed: the gift buying, the real estate shopping, and the personal growth. I also liked Marnie's friends but they weren't fully on the page enough for me to get properly attached. I even enjoyed the affair partner getting to be the POV. Also the secret daughter. I think she was handled rather well.
And then there was the romance element, which is obviously very important because it's a romance novel. And I think this book suffered from splitting itself between two romances that were occurring in 2 different generations. The younger set felt slightly rushed and I was ever able to get fully yay invested. The older set felt smoother but I have really hard time cheering for taking a cheater back. The explanation and build up were done rather well, I just didn't have it in me to cheer them on.

Light And Fluffy But Tackles Serious Issues As Well. This is one of those books that is centered as a romantic comedy - and never really strays from that, despite tackling serious issues of trust in various forms: infidelity, love languages, being the black sheep of a family, etc. Some bits are truly laugh out loud funny (yet of the cringing variety), including the scenes where the central plotline is first revealed. Other scenes are romance of the level Nicholas Sparks even often fails to pull off. (Including the one in the garden, all I'm saying there.) Ultimately this is a story of a woman discovering just what she wants and being in a position to make it happen, and that is the ultimate feel-good here, even above the pair of romance stories embedded within. Very much recommended.
