This book is essentially about grief and I've read this as I'm grieving two close losses in my life. This book has comforted me in ways I never thought a fiction book could.

I’m really glad I met the folks at Charon’s Crossing. And it’s now on my list of fictional places I’d sell my arm to visit.

Best book I’ve read in a long time. Will make you cry! But if you can’t feel sadness sometimes it’s a very bad thing.
