Also, reading this book while experiencing grief in any sense is so beautiful. Both pain and beauty can exist at the same time. One of my favorite quotes so far, “if you learned new details about someone who was gone, then he wasn’t vanishing. He was getting bigger, realer.” I’m so glad I’m reading it when I am.
Upon finishing, this book was so hard to read at times. I almost needed to finish it to get it off my mind. This was the first book ever I couldn’t read late at night bc I was terrified of having nightmares.
