Rated Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day 10/10

All throughout reading this book, I found myself smiling.<br/><i></i><br/>This book was published in 1938 and tells the tale of Miss Pettigrew, a failing governess who's life thus far has been quiet, polite and "ladylike", but, as the title gives away, this day, she lives.<br/><br/>I've never before read a book that I've non-stop smiled whilst reading. <br/><br/>I found myself falling quickly in love with Miss Pettigrew and wanting her to have all the kindness she deserved.

Rated Anxious People 10/10

A heartwarming story where not everything needs to be okay.<br/><br/>I really enjoyed this book. It's more of a 4.5 for me, as I'm not sure I'd need to read it again, but it left me with some warm and fuzzies inside, and that's nice to have every once in a while. <br/><br/>I cared about each of the characters and the Backman gives enough (albeit) little layers to each of them that makes the characters all special. <br/><br/>It was an easy read. I wanted to find out more at the end of each chapter. And it left me with a warm feeling in the end.
