I found myself crying multiple times while reading this book. As a person who lost a friend at 16 years old, it brought up a lot of grief and emotions while reading. I have often thought of "heaven" this way, a place where we can watch our loved one if we want, so it nice to see someone else write a "heaven" like this.
