Usually I love a sickening, psychological thriller that messes with your brain and leaves you rattled for days. Then there are times I love reading a sweet and charming book that makes you yearn to be a part of their family.
To me Nina is relatable: she thrives on predictability, is awkward, shares her random thoughts even when not appropriate, thinks she’s hysterical but is quite corny, and is quite fond of just being alone with a book. I swear it’s not me, especially because she has a wealth of knowledge which is a far cry from myself.
Her world changes when she finds out her the dad she never knew has passed and her presence is required at the reading of the will. Hold your horses, we learn it was the mom who did not want him in Nina’s life. The mom who was not impressed by being a mother and left Nina to be raised by a nanny while she traveled the globe. Okay, back to Nina no longer being alone. Now she has an instant, multigenerational family. At the same time she has fallen for a man, but she can’t handle how love will change her life.

After both comedic and tragic events, some of which is predictable but funny nonetheless, Nina realizes she finally has what she always needed and wanted. She still has her planner, but it is filled with people and places now.
Tom is patient and understanding and is happy to do “nothing” alongside Nina. Of course the nothing refers to her time to just read. Nina doesn’t get money at the will-reading, rather an expensive car. In the glove compartment she finds letters addressed to each of her siblings. Her envelope contains a passbook with savings of two million dollars. She is able to save the book store she works in by paying the VERY late rent and is now part owner.
