The Very Nice Box is a quirky book in the vein of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine and A Man Called Ove. It follows Ava, a sensible woman with her days divided into units, as she falls for her new boss while dealing with the grief of the death of her fiancée.

This book was surprising. Once I thought I knew where it was going, it did a complete turn around and did the opposite. I loved the pacing of the plot and the characters really grew on me. While they all had their flaws, most of them became very lovable characters by the end.

The Very Nice Box is equal parts a work romance story, an exploration of grief and moving on, and a psychological thriller. The authors did a masterful job of blending these together to create a captivating story.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it for people who like to add something extra to the normal office romance.
