This is a gumdrop of a book—perfect, compact and delicious— a fork-in-the-road kind-of a-love-story about an aspiring but struggling writer/server set in Boston, featuring themes of friendship and loss, fortitude and grit, desire and longing. This book is a treasure. (If you haven’t read Lily King’s Euphoria, you must: a researched but imagined book about a love triangle in anthropologist Margaret Mead’s amazing life.)
