Lauren Graham was born to play complex maternal figures! Can't wait to see her bring Grace Landry to life. The book was heartbreaking and beautiful - hope the adaptation does it justice. 🤞

Interesting casting choice. I love Lauren but she seems a bit too warm for this role based on the book description. Grace was pretty cold to Kenna at first. Still excited though!

Haven't read the book but I'll watch anything with Lauren Graham in it. She's been killing it since Gilmore Girls days. The premise sounds emotional - hope they don't make it too sappy.

As someone who loved the book, I'm cautiously optimistic. Colleen Hoover adaptations can be hit or miss, but with Lauren Graham involved, I have higher hopes for this one!
