Kate Connelly’s life hasn’t been the same since her mother’s death. Her dad works all the time and often comes home late or not at all. When he is home, he is very demanding and places many of the household chores and responsibilities on Kate who is also helping raise her two younger brothers and working part-time at a local diner to help pay the bills.

While reading, I couldn’t help but think about my own family, especially my grandmother, and all the things we shared and the stories she told. Makes me wish that I would have asked more, learned more, or had kept a notebook with the stories about her life, recipies and traditions. Which for Luna, she did.  Luna, the main character, began keeping a journal when she was young, off and on, and into adulthood. Even though she was not consistent in her entries, she captured things that meant something to her at that time.  Little did she know, after forgetting her journal at a cafe, the impact she would have on a complete stranger which believe it or not, she later meets at a bookstore and forms a long-lasting friendship that carries her through the goo
