*3.5 stars* 
 This is a very sweet book- the type that makes you say "Awww" and think about moving to Iowa to live the quintessential rural small town life (until you remember how much you would miss Target and Taco Bell and all of the other city life things you love so much). The story is kind of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe meets The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society- both wonderful slice of life adventures in some small, relatively unknown and mostly unimportant towns. I thought the idea of this particular story was very cute and definitely had a lot of literary love throughout, which I appreciated. The writing was a little off for me at times and there were certainly moments that I didn't really enjoy fully but overall I had a lovely time reading this and enjoyed the mini-vacation it provided me.
