At first glance, nothing much seems to happen in this book. But more "if life pushes you where you never wanted to go, and you have the courage to accept this new way, you can find unexpected happiness". Nothing so trite as "life goes on" or "time heals all wounds". What I loved most about this book is the message it seems to send. It's truly a wonderful book, especially because it deals with the painful side of life: loss, grief, living with a big hole where there used to be a person while trying not to drown in other's grief and accepting that life does go on. Just when Anna finally starts to feel as if she's getting some control of the situation, the biggest fight begins and Anna really has to step up once and for all.Ī winner, in my humble opinion. Anna barely has time to brush her teeth in the morning, let alone to date a woman-least of all one who has no idea about the two kids under her care. Filled with self-doubt, Anna feels as if she's making a mess of the entire thing, especially when she collides with a long-legged stranger. She tries to navigate the shock of looking after two children battling with their grief while managing her own. Left responsible for her young niece and nephew, Anna finds herself dumped and alone in Melbourne, a city she doesn't even like. Everything changes abruptly when her brother's and sister-in-law's deaths devastate her and her family. (August 12, 2015)Ī successful anaesthetist, Anna is focused on herself, her career, and her girlfriend. Elisa_rolle All the little Moments by G Benson
