This book made me cry. This was such a reflection on life and death, and what makes a life well lived. And acceptance and grief and all of the above. I absolutely loved this book—it made me laugh and cry and just think about my life and the lives and deaths of those around me. My favorite book of the year so far—TJ Klune is a phenomenal author that deserves more acclaim.

My gosh, this is the book that has made me cry the most in 2024 (so far). I love the found family, addressing different aspects of death and the processing it. It made me appreciate life more for sure.

This is my second read by TJ Klune and I am blown away by the writing. I typically prefer plot-driven stories, but Klune writes such wonderful characters in the most creative of settings that I would read almost anything he writes. This book is about death and if you choose to read it, prepare to cry and cry and cry but also love every second of it???
