Yes!" :) Definitely agree with Kat from If I Stay. That one broke my heart. Rev's mom in Letters to the Lost... that woman was sublime. I loved how she was so willing to open her home and heart to more than just her own children. She was there for Dec when he desperately needed someone. And Olivia! Such a great pick! Yes, she was the ultimate matriarch. All those rough alpha guys tended to jump when Olivia spoke. :)Tanya @ Girl Plus Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357204133826428572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528395365771263864.post-26217567829965803642017-05-16T07:45:47.551-04:002017-05-16T07:45:47.551-04:00Jocelyn Fairchild sort of reminds me of Lily Potte...Jocelyn Fairchild sort of reminds me of Lily Potter.

It's a beautiful journey through Lottie's grief with a touch of magical realism, but I really adored the whole set up with the Rowling type writer aunt. Very good book.
