 ðŸ“š I loved this exploration of grief and the many ways people try to move on (or not) from a loss.
📚 Jessa-Lynn is a hard to root for protagonist but you find yourself doing so anyway, or at least I did. We love a messy gay.
📚 The taxidermy passages are not for the faint of heart, but ultimately I did find them fascinating, and began to understand the meditative quality the work could take on for Jessa-Lynn.
