This was cute don't get me wrong, I loved the family aspect and the breaking of stigmatism on death and things surrounding death. However, I felt like there really wasn't much sustenance to the plot or anything going on enough to build the plot. It felt, at times, like a mix of things smashed together.

I did like the switcheroo on sunshine and grumpy trope. Granted the main MC female wasn't grumpy per se but her take on romance sure was. 

I don't know what else to say besides something was missing, lacking. I felt like the romance was very fast and not much to build on. The plot well felt more like reading a fanfiction. But the humor was well placed.
