Why did I start reading it?
I found this book on StoryGraph and added it to a prompt for my onboarding challenge there. I would totally read it otherwise anyway though, because it sounds hella cute (and so far it is, even though I’m really early in). I seem to really enjoy stories of 65+ year olds going on some kind of unexpected journey. I learned this with Jonas Jonasson as well. And hey — if you know of more, please let me know! 🥰
Words I’ve Learned:
Lines that linger
Harold felt he had never come across such simple certainty, and in such a young person; she made it sound obvious.
It surprised Harold how fast and angry cars seemed when you were not in one.
Life was very different when you walked through it.
My Book Joy 
I remember reading this years ago and really enjoying it, but I forgot a lot about it now and actually recently gave away the copy I found on my shelf (because I don’t think I was gonna reread it lol)! I love those lines you shared though. Hope you continue enjoying it 🙂

Thanks! Giving away books is such awin win. You make someone else happy, and also then have room for a new book 😎 I love the balance it gives to all characters. Even though they’re all a little unlikable at first, then you see more into them and they become human
