Ali Hazelwood, the author of "The Love Hypothesis," has created a heartwarming and gorgeously written novel that has captured the hearts of many readers. The characters are quirky and lovable, and the story is full of emotions and heart.

One of the main characters in the novel is Libby Nicholls, a broken-hearted woman who arrives in London with her life in tatters. On her first day in the city, she meets an elderly pensioner named Frank, who tells her about a chance meeting he had with a girl on the number 88 bus sixty years ago. The girl had beautiful red hair, just like Libby's, and they made plans for a date, but Frank lost the ticket with her number written on it.

Inspired by Frank's story, Libby makes it her mission to continue his search. She begins to open her guarded heart to strangers and new connections, and her tightly controlled world expands. But as Frank's dementia progresses quickly, their chance of finding the girl on the 88 bus is slipping away.

More than anything, Libby wants Frank to see his lost love one more time. But their quest also shows Libby just how important it is to embrace her own chance for happiness before it's too late.

The author of "The Last Library" brings us this beautifully uplifting novel about how one chance meeting can change the course of your life forever. The characters are relatable and lovable, the story is uplifting and romantic, and it celebrates the importance of making human connections and embracing our dreams. This book is my happy place!
