I’m going to be honest, this was not the easiest of stories to read because the central theme was dealing with grief. The story begins after Ethan’s death. Ethan was Liam’s brother and Liam is just beginning to make their journey into life after the loss. The book is written in chapters of befores and afters and you don’t really get the entire picture until the end. This was a very good book because it felt honest. You could viscerally feel Liam’s grief.
