This story, or really a collage of stories that eventually blend together, completely pulled me in and I could not stop reading it. It’s ideal for readers who like (or don’t mind) several shifts in perspective and timelines. 

There is a strong theme of grief, which was clear from the beginning, but this developed to be even more emotional and complex than I expected. It’s a very compelling illustration of how opposing ideas and experiences can be simultaneously true. I’ll be thinking about this one for a while.
