Why read it?

I’m a firm believer that a fulfilling, interesting, adventurous life isn’t just for the young, and that’s one thing I loved about this book and its dual storyline between a young woman and her grandmother.
It reminded me that a change in perspective often does wonders and that love can often be found in unexpected places.
From Amanda's list on relatable, flawed characters and hopeful endings.
This book made me smile. Reading it was like drinking a warm cup of tea.
Part of what stands out in this story is the relationship between Leena (a young driven professional), her grandmother, and their eclectic group of friends. It was delightful how the almost 80-year-old was portrayed as competent, friendly, and living life to the fullest.
