A tender and quirky novel about the romantic choices we make from the author of the New York Times best seller and Reese's Book Club Pick The Last Thing He Told Me

Emmy Everett is reluctantly heading home to New York for her brother Josh’s wedding. She has spent the last three years in a fishing town in Rhode Island, and, having little to show for it, she doesn’t particularly want to answer the questions she is sure to face about her (ex-) fiance, her (questionable) career choices, her (unknown) future. But she is still shocked when her typically resolute brother Josh confesses he is having doubts about his imminent marriage - and he asks Emmy the hardest question of all: What do I do now?

With 72 hours until the wedding, Emmy embarks with Josh on a road trip to help him find a mystery woman, and to answer some long overdue questions about who he wants to spend his life with. It isn’t only Josh who has some lessons to learn. Along the way, Emmy discovers some undeniable truths about what she wants from her own life, and she begins to realize that perhaps her own happy ending is not as far away as it seems.

I feel I’m a part of the story

Reviewed in the United States on 27 June 2021

Everything Laura writes takes me inside of the book. I’m always right there as if I’m watching it in person., like I’m a part of the story. That’s what I love about her books, I never want them to end.

Good Writer's Voice

Reviewed in the United States on 30 December 2021

Verified Purchase

I like the author's inner voice and its interaction with the other characters. I understood the plot as a coming-of-age story, albeit at a later age than adolescence. Some people wait even later to find themselves and set the course, so I'm OK with that. All in all a good and fun read. I look forward to reading more of her writing.

Oddly conflicted

Reviewed in the United States on 24 December 2012

This is a hard book for me to review. First, Ms. Dave is an absolutely fantastic writer. Her story flows and her word choices are exceptional. For that: 5 stars. However, there were problems in other areas. In the first place, I didn't like any of the characters except the parents. When I was this age, I was filled with enthusiasm, wanting to do stuff, get on with life. Perhaps 20-somethings are different all these years later but I could find nothing to admire about a young woman who gave up 3 years of her life to ruminate or her older brother at 30 who made no decision other than the one to cheat on his long-time fiancee. Self-indulgent, they drifted through life not caring about anyone else. These are the most boring and least admirable main characters I've ever read about. That's a 1-star. Then, Ms. Dave would begin a narrative section which sounded as if the POV character were going to come up with an incredibly deep insight, but she never did. Usually it made no sense at all. Another 1 star. Why didn't the editor say, "Let's make this a little more coherent"? And, last, there were SO MANY stories about their family that I wanted to throw the book at the wall. I didn't--again, because of Ms. Dave's marvelous writing--but I didn't know if I could stand hearing about their childhoods one more time. All I can say is Berringer and Elizabeth--RUN! So, if I total and come up with an average, that would 8 divided by 4 = 2 but I'm going to round that up to 3 stars because the writing is excellent.

A book about people's choices

Reviewed in the United States on 3 February 2022

Verified Purchase

This is a complicated book to review. It had a surprise ending and it is a book that could have a variety of endings depending on what the characters chose to do with their lives. The book made you feel as though you were actually there as you also were choosing which direction you would take if you were in their shoes. It would all depend on what your mind and heart wanted.

Not bad

Reviewed in the United States on 22 July 2017

Verified Purchase

I know this is not a glowing title for a review. I did actually enjoy the book. However, I was underwhelmed by the ending. I felt like it was all leading somewhere big but the author got bored of writing to that ending. I guess the book just was. Not a bad choice if you have to read the book but I'm sure other books would be more entertaining to chose.
