Unable to put the book down for more than a quick break for the necessities of life, this well-written, entertaining novel demonstrates the complexities of finding one's self and finding love through humor, all-too-familiar sadness, unwelcomed hardships and surprising friendships. A braver, stronger version of her old self, Louisa is the type of modern heroine this world needs more of. It is in these dim moments, where she is forced to manage the strains of her long-distance relationship, form new friendships and self-reflect that she finally discovers what Will truly wanted for her.Īs the pages turn, the reader watches Louisa transform into someone new. At first, the bright lights of the city, the fancy ball gowns and limo rides excite her, but Louisa soon discovers that even the brightest lights eventually fade. Louisa is immediately thrust into a world that contrasts her own simple life with that of New York City’s wealthiest elite. Excited and nervous for the adventure, she finds comfort knowing that Nathan, a co-worker she had met working for the Traynors, is working under the same roof. Leaving behind her boyfriend, Sam, and her family, she travels across the pond to New York City to be a caretaker for a new family.

However, this new life is not without its sacrifices. Still the same small-town girl in the bumblebee tights, Louisa leaves the familiarity and comfort of England, the only place she’s called home, to fulfill Will’s final request of her. It's a love that brings not only romance, but also a discovery of self. While Will Traynor, her love interest from the first book, is physically absent, his influence continues to play a prominent role in Louisa’s ability to find love again.
