Bird After Bird is a lovely and romantic tale about two people who manage to find each other despite their individual healing from grief and loss--and dealing with those losses in their own way. Wren has lost both her parents--most recently her father, who she adored. Laurence "Laurie" suffers from PTSD after losing his best friend during their deployment in Afghanistan, while simultaneously losing his fiancé at home in another tragedy. Those differences between them eventually get in the way—past hurts can have a way of messing up a perfectly good thing. A sweet romance in the new adult fiction genre, this book completely delivers. The setting of the story against a backdrop of "birding" was fascinating, in that it introduced a world to me that I know nothing about, and a unique way of two people finding each other.
