This book was just the thing I needed to pull me out of my reading slump. I will say, trigger warnings for suicidal thoughts, and attempt. As well as trigger warning for depression. 
I loved this book’s outlook on life and learning to love life by simply living. Realizing that no life is perfect, every life will have ups and downs. But you can choose to grab onto what’s good about life and to keep going. 
I found the writing of this book to be beautiful, and very profound. I’m so glad I picked this up.
