A beautifully written story with characters you truly care about and root for. An uplifting reflection on the people we love and the tangible and intangible ways we remember them. We all have an item that holds special significance to us and reminds us of someone that we love that has moved on from this world but never from our hearts. This book paints a beautiful picture of how those items can remain cherished and cared for even if their original keepers no longer can as well as the beautiful stories and memories that accompany them.
