This was a lovely read. I did not want to put it down. I enjoyed the growth of Mabel as an individual-- as she became more self aware of her octogenarian ways. There were some heartwarming moments, especially as Mabel came to terms with being unable to go back in time and change the course of her life. I enjoyed the varying friend relationships and how, despite their ages, each helped Mabel progress in her journey. Cute book.
