I really enjoyed the writing and descriptions in this book. Obviously, Eleanor’s humor was a highlight. It was amazing that the author could take such heavy topics and bring light-heartedness to them through the main character. I appreciated Raymond’s character so much and all of the little things that Eleanor begins to notice that he does and that others do to show that they care. Beautiful story overall.
