I feel like a black sheep, but I enjoyed this.

Penny seemed to have so much going for her, but her home life was a mess. That was a HUGE problem, but it was exacerbated by Penny NOT trusting her friends enough to help her carry the weight of her mother's alcoholism with her.

She makes a decision, and a clean break from her former life. After a year as "new" Penny, she was struck by lightning and left with a year long memory gap.

The bulk of this story was Penny trying to piece together what happened, why it happened, and getting back to the things and people she loved.

I enjoyed Penny's journey and appreciated how difficult Maizel made it for her, and I felt like the conclusion was on the real side of things, while still making me warm and fuzzy.

You don’t have to be a certain way just because people tell you that’s who you are. You don’t have to listen to them.

— A lovely book about forgiveness, second chances and the healing power of friendship. I just wish it explored the family issues as much as it did with the friendship and romance aspects.
