Very interesting read, I love books with POV changes, and though some weird things were going on in that family I liked the book overall. Somewhat sad/had some major sad parts, but not too sad and the end was really good. An interesting way to write about loss and it was cool to read the dialogue with the grandpa. I still imagine him and the grandma in the airport.
