This is a very personal five star for me.
Having being diagnosed myself with a genetic predisposition to gynecological cancers, I connected very deeply with Alison as a character (who is dealing with life post BRCA diagnosis).
I loved the dynamic between Alison and Adam. The cast of side characters was adorable and I also enjoyed how Alison resolved her inner conflicts with not only help from Adam, but through therapy and with the help of her family and friends as well.
This story will stay with me for a long time.
