To all the fans of classic rom-com movies...

5 stars

... be prepared to make a checklist, because The Falling in Love Montage is full of references to all of them! Some explicit, some not, but certainly all on purpose. And I love the humour, and specifically Saoirse's "mortal enemies" - Oliver the Sex God who always misses his own parties; Beth the Evil Queen who steals Saoirse's father's heart (and mine); and Super Barbara, with her emergency sewing toolbelt, and her heroic entrance with smoke and background music.

Well, on the other hand, it's not entirely light-hearted: the other big topic in the book is early-onset dementia - both in family members, but also in the main chars own future. A topic to be confronted.
