Ernie has had three grand passions in his long life: his dear wife Phyllis, a vintage Norton Dominator motorcycle, and his mini-me son, Stephen. Now, as dementia overwhelms Ernie and takes away everything he can remember about the everyday, memories of those far away times remain crystalline and cherished.

His granddaughter Nina, seventeen, is equally at odds with the everyday. Excluded from college for her lack of concentration, it seems a job in her mother’s green grocers is the best life can ever offer. Endless time stretches bleakly ahead, yet Nina feels she can barely make it to the end of each day.

Until, that is, Nina stumbles upon a surprise which, it turns out, can save both Ernie and herself…

I loved this book, beautiful story that many people will relate to especially if they have an elderly relative with dementia. Narrator was great too - this is my first book by Jacqueline Jones, looking forward to reading more.
