I’ve never officially cried at a book til this one. Even my stone cold heart couldn’t take it. This book was so beautiful (I highlighted 32 passages) and I really don’t know if I’ll ever stop thinking about it. It’s about life and death and teaches us that death is scary but it’s also only the beginning. If you really want to muse about life and sob at the same time I highly recommend. 

Will I ever recover? Probably not, but it wrecked me in the best possible way. I’ll leave you with my favorite quotes, “it’s never enough, is it? Time. We always think we have so much of it, but when it really counts, we don’t have enough at all.” And “what will you do with the time you have left?”

Thank you to Netgalley, TJ Klune and Tor Books for the gifted ARC in exchange for an honest review.
