This book crept out of the woodwork and captured my heart. It was beautiful to witness the love and wounds within a family and the humanity of regret. This book felt like a gift to the parts of myself navigating the story of my family and the ways love can be present even when seemingly absent. I’m not religious, but the ending was so beautiful that it gave me something to hold dear when I think on the afterlife. Truly a beautiful story.

Beautiful, heartbreaking, and felt so real. This one hit a nerve for sure, I cried for all the characters.
