This was a lovely read, as the prior two books have been. If you are easily emotional, be prepared to sob at deaths past and present (not exactly a spoiler as people often return to the past to visit dead loved ones). This book took a sadder and darker turn with an eventual pivot to hopefulness for happiness in the future. One that does not rely on the physics presence of others.
