What a beautiful book. It really touched me. It took me a little bit to get into, but I loved the characters, especially Marcellus. It had me tearing up at the end - what a special story.

This book was so good. I enjoyed Marcellus. The way grief was talked about was tender and real.

Marcellus will be my favorite book character forever 💓 Tova and Ethan are chef's kiss 

Such a feel good book about life and trauma and human (or not so human) connections.
