Actual rating: 4.5 stars
Initial thoughts: This book is the sweetest! Julia had no idea what she was in for when she took on the job as a psychologist at a retirement home. All she knew was that she needed to get away from her old life, lest she waste away in her grief. What she found was a group of elderly who came to treat her like family. I loved reading about Julia's journey and the residents' shenanigans, which made me snicker ever now and then. Julia's kinda snarky too. For the most part, I found it amusing and endearing. Although, there were times where this led to over the top narration that didn't entirely mesh with the rest of the book.
