Nagamatsu expertly weaves together separate stories that connect to one another as a complete novel that deals with grief and loss. While I often had to put the book down between stories, as it was so so heavy, I also know I'll be thinking about this one for a long time. I'd definitely want to check out more of the author's writing, as long as it's a bit cheerier.
