One of the best book I've read in 2023. Beautifully written and engaging. A lot of elements in this book hit too close to home and I felt it described very well what someone feels or does when going through grief, and dealing with mental illness. 
Highly recommended, just before if the many trigger warnings in case you're someone who can't deal with this kind of content at the moment
