Throughly enjoyed this book. Clover is a death doula by profession which I found fascinating in and by itself maybe because I’m a registered nurse who worked on an inpatient oncology floor and did some hospice care at that time. Clover’s parents were quite absent and died in an accident when she was 6 years old. Her grandfather took her in and cared for her while she grew up. Sweet story about overcoming fears that had prevented Clover from living a full life. A journey through caring for her clients and having a friend for the first time in addition to being so afraid of rejection that she closed herself off to relationships. Watching her overcome her fears warmed my heart.
