Mar 5: Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano

William Waters, raised in a home marked by grief and emotional neglect, finds warmth and belonging when he falls for Julia Padavano in college. Through her, he becomes part of the lively, close-knit Padavano family—Julia; bookish Sylvie; artistic Cecelia; and nurturing Emeline. But when William’s buried trauma resurfaces, it threatens Julia’s plans and fractures the sisters’ deep bond, creating a rift that spans generations. The story asks whether the loyalty that once held them together can ultimately bring them back to one another.
