Written entirely in letter format. A sweet, sentimental story about a mass shooting, the victims' recoveries, mental health, and healing. I was rooting for the main character the whole time and was very endeared to him. The ending was touching.

The audio narration was excellent.

Overall, this was an enjoyable book but not one that is going to stick with me long term.
