Dear Yesterday

What a sweet story! This was something kind of different for me. I saw the cover while scrolling through Instagram and looked up the summary and I knew I had to give it a chance.

Luella's been estranged from her family for over a decade when her ailing grandmother sends word that she needs some help around the farm. As they reconnect, she gains a new perspective of old memories and reconciles what could have been but never was. She also learns sometimes family is what you make it even if it's not the ideal picture you've always had in your mind. Perhaps the most difficult reality she must face is that some people never change.

All in all, a very enjoyable book with plenty of emotional and touching moments — and a great debut! I'm looking forward to Lindsey Ray Redd's next book.
