Reexperiencing this lovely audiobook (again!) because it is the next book the new Hokah library book club will be reading. I suspect I'll also get the hard copy text in another week or two, at least to skim through some parts, but listening to Tom Hanks read this enjoyable story is too nice a treat to pass up even if I have listened previously - Goodreads tells me it was already back in 2020 when I last read this.

The reunion with their mother after Maeve's health scare has not been easy for Danny - I think like many of us, he's having a hard time forgiving and letting go.

This being the 2nd listen maybe I'm noticing more, but even the first time I remember appreciating the time shifting between when Danny was a boy and when he would come home from boarding school or med school and talk with Maeve in her car while they sat across the street from their old house.
