5 Stars

This book is quietly beautiful. From the beginning when we meet our four characters and a withering dog, we are not sure where they will interact and what types of relationships they will build together. We see that Norry and Bud are caregivers and Lizzie and Wendell are in need of taking that care, but the building of those connections occurs in this light pace, moving forward and never hurried. I recommend this book for general fiction fans, romance readers (it is a beautiful, slow blossoming love with some giddiness) and those who enjoy a small town or northern setting. There is so much grace in this book for fellow humans and nature and ways people continue to hurt. It is imaginative and surprising and extremely well-constructed. Bravo to Carrie Classon. 

Thank you Lake Union Publishing and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
