Summary
“It’s like something’s been on your mind for a while and you’re not—you’re just keeping it to yourself.”
Her throat works. “Am I not allowed to do that?”
She doesn’t mean to sound defensive, but the words come out like that anyway. Mike blinks, a little surprised and she can’t blame him for it, but the gentleness of his voice doesn’t fade. “Of course you are,” he says with a nod. Never one to deny her anything.
It sends an aching pang through her chest. He’s always on her side, puts her above everyone else—including himself. He has shown it to her time and time again, proved to her repeatedly that nothing is more important to him than she is. And that—that worries her.

Summary
“I’m Elín,” El said and there was the note of stubbornness she’d always carried in her, still so present. “Please,” she said. “Please, Mike.”
Mike let out a laugh that grated on his ears, “Finally. I thought you’d forgotten my name.”
El’s brows furrowed, lips twisting, “You think I’d ever forget your name? Forget you?”
“Did you not?” Mike asked with a pained smile.
Egged on by his editor, Mike embarks on a journey to the remote town of East Iceland, Seyðisfjörður, to recuperate and perhaps, find something inspiring to write about. What he finds there instead is the love of his life, once presumed dead, now real before his eyes, and a community that offers him the space to heal without handing him the cure.
Maybe his life still has capacity for the adventure and wonder that he’d once thought he’d lost forever.

Summary
At minute twenty-six, Matilda squints, her father giving her no other choice but to focus on the TV. She’s hurt, and she’s angry, she doesn’t want to watch this stupid game show—the camera cuts back and forth to her eyes, the TV. Rory is on the edge of her seat, wondering what’s going to happen next, even though something about it starts to feel a little familiar. They cut back to the TV one last time, music growing louder—
It explodes. Under Matilda’s stare.
Rory feels an icy, unpleasant sense of déjà vu, and then she starts to figure out exactly why Mama put this on.
