The side characters are so vibrant, with the exception of Priya whom we didn’t get to see much of and I wanted to see more interactions with her as well.
That is true friendship, and being a decent human being. They have both hurt each other, yet still only want the other to be happy. I actually wish we got more of them together, and the only thing I didn’t like was the vague last page. Dylan is a great compliment to her, and I appreciate their friendship so much. This book was provided to me by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.Īlright, I am going to be talking about spoilers below.Īly is an amazing, complicated character whom I adore. Or if you aren’t open to something that has some sass and heart in it. Really, anyone – unless you are only wanting action, adventure, and magic… then maybe I wouldn’t. Not something necessary, but I’d be happy to give this novel to anyone. This is a novel of humanity and love.Īnd Forsythe accomplished this without any explicit scenes. This looks at the people-pleasers and bridging old mistakes. This is a novel that speaks to people, not just women. Note: this is not a self-help book, but it is very relatable. This book let me experience a bit of a ‘what-if’ and also gave me a bit of insight into myself.
I don’t know about anyone else, but I have definitely had relationships, friends, and others, that months or years later I find that I had an impact in their lives, but I feel like I’m stuck in the same place or being left behind. This novel is so wonderfully written, with characters I just want to keep interacting with and a plot that moves because you want to see what Ally is going to do next, how is she going to cope, and how is she going to grow as a person. That isn’t to say she is sad, and she is fantastic at her job, just that after a chance meeting with an old boyfriend who has become so much more than when she knew him, and credits her for his change for the better, she can’t help wondering why her life isn’t what she wanted. Written by Lauren Forsythe, The Fixer Upper follows Aly, a marketing guru who has been trying for the same promotion for over five years and takes herself on monthly dates to nice places.
