How do you find yourself after you lose the one you loved the most?

Lenny has been a bit of a mess since her best friend, Lou, passed away. She's avoiding her concerned parents, her apartment and the list of things she's supposed to do to enjoy life again. The only thing she can handle right now is babysitting a precocious seven-year-old, Ainsley. And if Lenny acts like she's fine, maybe no one will notice she's falling apart. The only issue: Ainsley's uncle, Miles, is always there and is kind of . . . a huge jerk.

But Miles sees right through her. He knows a lot about grief and offers her a deal: he'll help her complete her "live again" list if she'll help him re-connect with Ainsley and his sister. Lenny doubts anything can help, but as she begins to spend more time with Miles, she begins to see that, sometimes, losing everything can be the first step to finding yourself again.

Beautiful

Felt a little long. Sadly my least favourite Cara book. It was ok but it felt slow and drawn out

A little repetitive

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
the narrative is amazing and will be following her. I love the story overall my only issue I have is that it should have an epilogue to see more from his end and how life looks a few years down

Love the book
