We meet two women and many quirky characters in this emotional read.
We meet Edith who has Alzheimer's and whose son is her caregiver. Edith wants to find the love of her life who left her at the bus stop.
Yes, she is at the bus stop every day looking for Sven. She has been waiting a long time and talks to other people as she sits on the bus stop bench. Many people think she’s homeless and do things for her.
We also meet Sophia who owns a flower shop and who is trying to find someone to spend time and her life with, but she has a lot of quirky things. She doesn't like to kiss and doesn’t trust anyone.
She actually meets Edith’s son Blade as he is in Sweden looking for Sven.
These three characters will pull at your heartstrings as you hope for the best for what each is looking for.
Those readers who enjoy Fredrik Backman will enjoy this book.
I do have to say it was a bit confusing, but a good read. 4/5
Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
Edith is an elderly woman living with Alzheimer’s. Her son Blade is her primary caregiver. Every day Edith goes to the corner bus stop to wait for the love of her life, who she was supposed to meet twenty seven years ago. While there she is befriended by a young woman one day.
Sophia had an uncle that passed away and he left her and her brothers a flower shop.. she is struggling with autism.
Edith convinces Blade to travel to Sweden from London ( where they live) in the hopes of finding her lost love Sven.
A series of events brings Blade and Sophia together. During this time together they learn much about themselves and find hope for a better life than they ever could have imagined.
Thank you Netgalley audio for this amazing book. It was a story beautifully told and the readers were excellent, if you are a fan of Fredrik Backman you will love this book.
