This book was something I didn’t know I needed until I read it. I loved it. I cried. It brought me a sense of completion and hopefulness I didn’t realize I lacked. It’s funny, it’s sorrowful, and it makes me a little less afraid for the “after.”

That being said, take care of yourself if you choose to read this. It’s not always cheerful; the author explores death and all the unfiltered emotions that go with it. Despite that, I don’t think you will regret reading this book.

The characters were interesting and writing is great. Might be tough for people experiencing grief, but could also be reassuring.

This book…I have a lot of love for it. 

The characters are all beautiful, well rounded and loveable. Normally I live for a few flawed characters thrown in, and even though there are a few, they still won my heart. 

The story had my attention from beginning to end, and I just felt a huge amount of joy and comfort when reading it. 

The ending BROKE ME. I cried. Nothing more needs to be said.

If I had one small complaint, it would be that the building relationship between Wallace and Hugo felt a bit YA, and as Wallace is written as a 40 something, this felt ever so slightly jarring. But I can let that slide for the fact that the rest of it was utter perfection.
