Phew. Well that was a laugh out loud, emotional rollercoaster. Never has a book since 3 men in a boat made me almost cry with laughter, but at the same time there were so many hard hitting emotional moments. A true example of living with grief and eventually finding joy despite it. Couldn’t recommend this book more!

Crying one page then laughing the next. I refuse to hear a single negative word about this book.

A few things to note: 1) I know that Ben has a lifelong of family trauma to work through, but the amount of times i wanted him to slap him and tell him to get a grip, were absurd. 2) I wasn’t expecting where this went, but I’m genuinely glad it didn’t end how I thought. This was a better alternative! 3)I CACKLED at parts of this book, I thought the banter was quite funny, considering how sad most of the themes are
