This is an opposites attract/age gap (without making it a big thing) story that features maybe the most compelling couple I can remember reading recently. There are so many things that need to be called out, but every reader deserves to discover them for herself. This is the kind of book that makes me wish I could discuss it in a book club. There have been some really great books published this year, but I’m going out on a limb and saying that at the end of 2021 Worthy of Love will still be standing at the top. The year is 1/3 over as of this weekend, which means I’m 1/3 through my GR reading challenge.
