Somewhere between a warm hug and a breath of fresh air of a story. The characters were so endearing, and I loved watching them slowly bond over love and loss and find meaning in moving on together. The story beats were fairly predictable for the most part (like, even if you don't know exactly what the twists are going to be, you know they're coming), but in a way that was comforting, not frustrating. I can see myself re-reading this as a comfort book.
