I’ve read many reviews of this and I know how much people loved it, and I did think it was good but I was expecting to cry throughout which didn’t really happen. The main  storyline is funny and sad, but felt like there were too many side plots which didn’t add anything and were never really developed. Nevertheless it was still a pretty touching read for subjects that so many people go through like grief and loss.
