This book is so random and out there that I just couldn’t help but love it.
When I found this in a local book store and read the description I just knew I had to get it and read it.
An estranged great-uncle leaving her a strange request in his will, having her go about and complete tasks? Yeah, that sold me real quick on this book, it sounded intriguing and I just love that about a book so I got it and I read it and oh my gosh, I couldn’t put the book down. It was so good.
Hannah feels like the odd one out in her family, she has two degrees but hasn’t settled on a job she knows she wants and will love and her family makes sure to bring it up any time they can. When an invitation is sent out by an estranged great-uncle to the family she comes face to face with a man that sees her for who she is, he sees what nobody else does.
When the news of her great-uncles passing comes around and they’re all there for the Will Hannah has no idea what’s in store for her, in his Will are multiple letters that detail his life and end with a task that she must complete in order for her to get her inheritance with the help of his assistant Alec.
Alec is wary of Donald’s family and so doesn’t trust any of them but as Donald set the task he’s been roped into helping Hannah do her tasks and earn her letters but what he doesn’t expect is the fun they have doing so and how closer they grow to each other.
Being able to see these two figure out the tasks and play them out has been so much fun. The talks are fun and thrilling and so random that it makes you laugh. Watching them grow and become close due to this reason is adorable. I just loved how easily they all became friends and how easy it was for Hannah to interact with these people Donald held close to him.
Throughout the books and letters we get to see Donald’s life unravel and although it’s out there and unexpected it fits that man perfectly, it’s been great to read and discover everything about that man. He’s interesting that’s for sure.
All in all it’s been an absolute joy reading this book and I sure hope there’s more books from this author, I’ll have to look it up as soon as I’m done writing this Haha. Kudos to the author for having me completely addicted to this book and not being able to put it down.
Love this type of book! It takes you on a journey to discover sometime you may have lost.
So enjoyable. The story was original and interesting.
This book was full of family drama, wonderful character and very interesting concept. I loved it.
Totally fun – a great beach read
Where There’s a Will by Beth Corby a five-star read that will challenge you. Beth Corby has just become a one click author for me on the standard of this novel alone. Its funny and honest and will challenge you, it shows us grief and family drama and you will laugh at inappropriate moments, but you may also be sad at some strange ones too. Hannah will allow you to accompany her along her journey, you get the joy of watching her get a sense of purpose in her life but that’s not the story. But the thing is, she isn’t the character that will show you the most in this story, that honour falls to Donald, he may be a black sheep but sometimes they are the ones that can show you the most. Alec will challenge you as he isn’t that likeable for most of the story, but the rest makes up for it. Now all I need to do is find out what else Beth Corby has written so I can get me some more reading done.
I enjoyed the story and liked getting to know who Donald was as we continued to read and find more about him. I also liked Hannah and how she grew thru-out the story however I wasn’t really sold on Alec, I didn’t really feel a connection or believe they they fell for each other..So while it was a cute story, didn;t believe in the love interest.
