This book takes such an intense look at life, death, humanity, and the self. It does have a trigger warning in the beginning, so be aware. However, I was sobbing by the end. TJ Klune is a master of taking a very unlovable character and absolutely demolishing their previous worldview so they become your favorite character. Under The Whispering Door is beautiful, plain and simple. On the outside, it’s a simple book about a tea shop and some ghosts but it makes you think and question and honestly, it’ll be a classic some day.
