cute as hell <3 would love to get my own copy so i can highlight all the bits about learning to love the simple things. the mystery was so lovely but at some point i realised i didn't mind if eleanor left it secret. her grief and trauma was handled really well. also my copy had book club questions which is always so so fun so my copy will be thoroughly annotated for those too! just heed the content warnings! this felt like pretty light reading to me but i could easily see how people would struggle at parts. take care of urself!
