While this story is about grief, I did not enjoy it. There are five characters who trade off narrating and I can't say I liked any of them.
In addition to that, there are one off comments made using diagnoses like Tourettes and ADHD that I really didn't appreciate. If you want to use certain conditions in your book, at least have the decency to do it well and not just as an off the cuff remark.
