heartbreaking in every way but full of infinite hope. she doesn’t know her place in the world or how to move on from the death of her girlfriend when no one even knew they were together. she deals with grief, life and learning that you’re allowed to be selfish. being selfish does not make you a coward, despite what other hurting people may say. you are allowed to be selfish, and this book promises you that. it leaves you drained and entirely hopeful. and let’s you know that you won’t have to chase ghosts forever. i also really liked this writing style- it felt almost lyrical at times but remained rather disjointed as you read. it read like the feeling of grief. out of touch and not quite linear, falling back to what used to be before you can look forward. i love love love <3
