funny reflective sad slow-paced

5.0

A lot of the stories really resonated with me and made me think. I especially loved On staying with friends; How to cook scrambled eggs; “Go slow;” On presence; Plants are already there, too; Something that Elissa told me once that I repeat to myself every day; Goodbye, again; and Your last 15 minutes before the end of the world, ranked from worst to best (I think I’ve read this last one somewhere before, and it is just as emotional reading it again). I also loved the juxtaposition and mirroring of Visiting happiness and Visiting sadness. I loved the varying formats and the inclusion of the drawings, which really amplified some of the stories.
