4.0

This is a hard book to read. It's bleak, and it's trying to be, and we need more books like this, that tackle the ugly parts of grief head-on. Liam is not a likeable character but they are an interesting character to empathise with as they grapple with losing their brother and feeling the family dynamic shift in the aftermath. An intense book but one worth reading.
