      Overview :

          A funny, heartfelt, late coming-of-age story that examines the role of memory in holding us back—and in moving us forwardCall it inertia. Call it a quarter-life crisis. Whatever you call it, Cricket Campbell is stuck. Despite working at a zeitgeist-y wellness company, the twenty-six-year-old feels anything but well. Still adrift after a tragedy that upended her world a decade ago, she has entered early adulthood under the weight of a new burden: her father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis.When Cricket’s older sister Nina announces it is time to move Arthur from his beloved Adirondack lake house into a memory-care facility, Cricket has a better idea. In returning home to become her father’s caretaker, she hopes to repair their strained relationship and shake herself out of her perma-funk. But even deeply familiar places can hold surprises.As Cricket settles back into the family house at Catwood Pond―a place she once loved, but hasn’t visited since she was a teenager―she discovers that her father possesses a rare gift: as he loses his grasp of the past, he is increasingly able to predict the future. Before long, Arthur cements his reputation as an unlikely oracle, but for Cricket, believing in her father’s prophecies might also mean facing the most painful parts of her history. As she begins to remember who she once was, she uncovers a vital truth: the path forward often starts by going back. The themes explored throughout the book are introduced gradually, allowing readers to absorb them naturally. Rather than overwhelming the audience, the author integrates these ideas into the story’s progression. This subtlety enhances impact. The book’s conclusion feels well-aligned with the journey that precedes it. Rather than offering an abrupt or exaggerated ending, it provides a resolution that reflects the themes and character development established earlier. This thoughtful closure enhances overall satisfaction.
