This was such a sweet contemporary middle grade that dealt with loss and family in a lovely way. I love how our MC, Willow, is neurodivergent (or at least neurodivergent coded) and how it influenced her POV. I also really loved the family who really brings her into their fold even though they barely know her. Even Dell kind of grew on me.
