But everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond, the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office. When she and Raymond together save Sammy, an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk, the three become the kinds of friends who rescue one another from the lives of isolation they have each been living. And it is Raymond’s big heart that will ultimately help Eleanor find the way to repair her own profoundly damaged”
This was one of the first book is purchased this year in January. I waited until April to read it and boy I was not let down.

It.Was.Such.A.Good.Book!! I am 100% with everyone else in the sense that this is definitely a 5 STAR read!
It made me laugh, it made me cry, it had a big twist in it. What more could you wasn’t from a book?
Oh and it was beautifully written and touched on some really deep topics very sensitively.
I loved it. If you haven't already, read it.
