A comet appeared. What is a comet but ice and ash and dust?
I like to think of myself as a picky reader, but this melted me completely. I don’t care how clichéd the phrase seems, I need to say; this book is perfection.
I have never read a book that has hit so personally in describing all aspects in relation to how I experienced my grief. When Beth lost Lydia it was like reading someone describing what I went through when my Nanny died, though we had a much different grandmother/granddaughter dynamic than those two, grief hit similarly.
Just really, really beautiful writing- Read this book!
