Review: One Good Thing
After finding out her husband of ten years was having an affair Olivia runs away to the quiet country town of her childhood to start afresh.
One Good Thing is a highly engaging and heartwarming story of starting over, finding that 'one good thing' in your life that keeps you going everyday. That reason to get out of bed and face each new day.
Told through numerous points of view there is bound to be a character everyone will find relatable. I was eager to see how each of the characters would connect with the main character Olivia.
Olivia's world changes when she adopts
an old abandoned dog and through him she connects with other people in
the community and learns, through Harry, to leave the hurt of the past
behind and live for the moment.
Alexandra Potter is a new author to me and after reading One Good Thing I am eager to explore her backlist.
One Good Thing is a story of grief, moving on, getting out of your comfort zone,navigating different relationships, family dynamics and accepting help from others.
I loved the small community of Nettlewick in the Yorkshire Dales and how everyone came together when needed.
Potter effortlessly adds diversity through her characters without any of it coming across as contrived.
