À propos de cet audio

Sisters Jenna and Rosie bring out the worst in each other. So they mostly keep their distance.

But Jenna has suddenly found herself with no job, no boyfriend, nowhere to live - and no idea what to do next. Is life really supposed to be this difficult? Turning up on Rosie's doorstep is the last thing she wants to do, but it feels like her only option.

Rosie misses her old life, the one filled with fun and travel and excitement. These days she barely has the energy for her cute friend with benefits, let alone to take care of her little sister. Why doesn't she ever get to put herself first?

Somehow the sisters find themselves roped into a community project, forced to work together. As the group brings an overgrown garden back to life, curious - maybe even magical - things begin to happen. New friendships blossom and old wounds start to heal. But will Jenna and Rosie finally find their way back to happiness, and each other?

I absolutely loved this story and the narrators performances. Not all the characters are lovable and perfect, but they aren’t supposed to be. This book explores mental health in a very real and yet still gentle way and makes you root for the characters even when you don’t necessarily like them at the time. Both sisters are perfectly narrated. I just love this book and would absolutely recommend it to anyone who is open to some raw writing about mental health.

Absolutely amazing!
