![]() ![]() Similarly to A Note In The Margin by Isabelle Rowan, this book really made me think about homelessness and drifters and the way we treat people. Whether or not we admit it, society does tend to be harder on people pushing middle-aged and we're not nearly as accepting and forgiving as we like to think. It's easy for us to accept the idea of a man in his twenties having a life-changing experience or turning things around. I could listen to him talk all day in that rambling drawl (I don't think he was actually southern but I put a twang on his voice in my head and have no qualms about it!) He was sweet and sad and wonderful, and so much more broken than the well-loved Shane who limped into his life and wouldn't let go. ![]() ![]() I'd be hard pressed to tell you a character that I've loved more than Jimmy. And when you get your white-picket fence HEA it feels honest and genuine and well deserved. Real and true and not always pretty, but also not gruesome. They don't present a simple romance with a white-picket fence HEA. They don't lay thick the tragedy in an obvious attempt to fuck with your emotions. ![]()
