Hello Reader! Let me tell you about the most recent book that gave me a good, cathartic cry. I loved it so much that I can’t stop underlining! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 stars W&L talks about grief, female ambition, and defining self-worth when we can’t align with society’s timeline. Casey is a 31 year old waitress buried deep in debt, just lost her mother, and is struggling to finish her 6 year old novel. All of her writer friends have moved on from creating “The Next Great American Novel” and pursued fancier, well-paying jobs. But Casey sticks to her writing. Despite every change she’s been through, the novel was the only constant thing in her life. We follow Casey’s life as she balances making art and earning a living. We get a glimpse of her love life where she needed to choose between two men. If it weren’t for the grief part, this would have been an excellent rom-com movie! Even though there were a couple of clichés, I didn’t mind.
