Stunning. Hart shows how brutally parental love lingers.

Wow! By far the best, most heartbreaking book I've read this year, and maybe ever. It is painful to read, but so worth it.

Touching graphic memoir about parents' grief after losing a child.

Oof. About as sad as you'd expect a book about a dead kid to be. So sad.

Reading this book is what I imagine getting stabbed in the belly with a knife feels like. My chest was tight through the whole read. So beautiful. One reviewer called it raw. It is raw and agonizing and surprisingly full of hope.

So, I may have cheated a little. I started this graphic novel in the summer but for one reason or another I put it down then picked it up again today.
It truly did take me 2 sessions to finish, but not consecutive sessions.
This book really deals with depression and loss and grief in a very good and healthy way. It’s explained in a graphic way, a visual way that I understood as well. Losing someone is hard and this plot line shows exactly what is going through your mind or heart after the loss. It was a very compelling graphic novel and I liked it a lot.

Started reading this one night, and then stopped due mostly to exhaustion. I don't know what to say about it other than it's a very emotional and vulnerable work. I was on the brink of tears by the end of it.
I hope it helps people heal, helps people be more mindful and empathetic to people grieving (an in general) and also encourages us to treat each other with a little more consideration/compassion because you never really know what someone else is going through.
May add more to this later, may not...
