We've all been asked the question. If you could invite five people, living or dead, to dinner, who would you choose? Our answers often vary from deceased family members to famous celebrities to our childhood heroes. The Dinner List is a story about what would happen if that theoretical situation came true, and the outcome. What follows is an evocative novel about love, regret, and growth.
The Dinner List was definitely a strange read for me, as I'm pretty much a perpetual light reader, and I also tend to avoid conversations of philosophy. However, I was immediately drawn into Sabrina's journey. The narrative volleys back and forth between past and present, explaining Sabrina's choices in guests, and shows her grow as a person along the way.
While this book wasn't perfect for me, it was beautifully written, provocative, and full of heart. I would definitely recommend this book to fans of women's fiction, as well as all the romantics out there.
3.5/5
