full disclosure, i'm not big on kids and tend to avoid kidfic but!!!! this is so so good and kudos for getting ne invested so quickly!! what's great is the kids actually feel real, not just conveniently placed for plot purposes. i also really liked hoe much joe and nicky's personalities shined through in their interactions with the kids and how they approach parenting.
and the letters?? so so adorable, with developmentally appropriate wording and english mistakes?? my heart melted. i'm shockingly as excited to see the friendship between the girls as i am for the inevitable matchmaking!
