Okay I love Florence so much and Ben is dreamy ♡ This is such a cute romance and, I know I’m a sucker for a story with themes of grief, but I loved the backdrop of this novel set in a funeral parlour but somehow being the most wholesome funeral and sudden death ever. I miss them already

This book is simply about love, how it permeates and persists. Between partners, yes, but also family, friends, and even strangers that have a story to tell. I have never truly understood death until I read this book. It is sad, confusing, a goodbye and a beginning. The family dynamics in the book warmed my heart and I too felt like Ben siting on the counter observing the Day family. Ben was an amazing MMC that was so kind, understanding, and all together very endearing. Florence was a character that really grows on you as you meet her in the worst time of her life and take steps towards growth hand-in-hand. This book made me cry, laugh, think, and love.
