I just this minute finished reading Our Stop by Laura Jane Williams and I had to log right on to talk about it. I actually was offered an advance copy of this back in 2019 when it was first coming out but I was overwhelmed with stuff back then and didn't get around to it in time. Believe me, I'm kicking myself now for not reading this adorable book sooner.
Our Stop is a fun, silly rom-com that fans of Bridget Jones' Diary, early Jane Green novels, and any Nora Ephron movie will love. It's all about missed connections and plays with the idea that some people are just fated to meet. It's way overloaded on coincidence, tropes, and serendipity, but it all works somehow and comes together as a cute, feel-good story. I definitely understand now why this book hit so many recommendation lists over the last few years and will be looking out for more books by Williams ASAP. I love reading this kind of novel during the school year when my brain is on overload and I need a fun distraction that won't add angst or stress to my day.
Anyone else read Our Stop and have thoughts to share?
