I absolutely adored this book, and the narration by the author was fabulous.
Mostly hilarious, a little sad and a little scandalous. I was waiting for tears to be triggered, but they never were. That's alright, I still felt the story dealt with grief very well. The children were a highlight, especially on audio book. As a mother of a 6 year old, I was immediately drawn to Grant. The ending is... chef's kiss. I need to see this as a limited series!
