I enjoyed the characters (mostly) and eventually learning how their stories intersected. I wasn’t crazy about how long it took to get to that point or that it felt like you started somewhat in the middle of things with no clear explanations and just had to trust the process until it got to that point. Overall it was a nice story and something different to read. Not something I likely would’ve picked on my own. I enjoyed it for the most part though.

I hate to admit it when hype books are good but OH MY GOODNESS THIS WAS A DELIGHT. I loved loved loved it. It's sweet and nuanced and there are character redemption arcs, and just everything. No complaints.

I listened to this one and the narrators were great, especially the one for Marcellus. This was a very sweet story about grief and how we move forward through it.
