Although it moves at a snail’s pace, this is an incredibly poignant and moving story. I do think it gets a bit repetitive and drags in the middle, but overall, it’s a beautiful book about death, life, and grief. This author is quickly becoming one of my favourites.

This is a story that will stick with me for a long time. I found myself thinking about these characters during my work day. I laughed and I cried and cheered for them throughout this story. It is a bit of a slow start but so worth it in my opinion. It’s a heavy book about death and grief and believing in the humanity of the people around you. It’s beautiful and heartbreaking and hopeful. I really love TJ Klune.
