I decided to read this book because of how much I loved The Guncle, but I really didn't know what to expect with this one. What a pleasant surprise!
Steven Rowley has a way of writing about grief like no one else I've read. He ties in humor, sadness, anger, and all the feelings.
If you decide to read this, do yourself a favor, and get the audiobook. Michael Urie brings the story to life as the narrator, and does an AMAZING job, especially voicing Lily.
