I thought this book was actually really good. It was extremely touching and emotional. The main character Mabel, struggled at first to stay in touch with her feelings while grieving her mother and her grandfather, but throughout the book she really progresses as an individual and begins to open up about how she is truly feeling. I think it was also very well written and the author did an amazing job when describing Mabel's feelings and why exactly she feels what she feels. I also really liked the pace of the book, it was short and sweet and I was able to get through it no problem. At first I was unsure if I was going to be really interested in this book, but after reading I would definitely recommend it!
