Here We Go Again by Alison Cochrun
5.0

This book spoke to my very soul in many ways.
My grandpa died of illness a year ago, after years of being in and out of hospitals and various emergency rooms, so as you can imagine I'm well acquainted with seeing a loved one slowly lose themselves to illness and decay.
And although we never get to take him on a death-trip like they did with Joe, this tale of love and loss became very dear to my heart.
Another thing for me were the two main characters, in some ways I could really relate to Rosemary, from her anxiety and her brand of mental distress to how she communicated with people. But the main thing that made me happy (read made me sob through the spicy scenes, from a weird mix of joy and vulnerablity) was how Cochrun depicted her sexuality, like I've never seen before. The mixture of rawness, and honesty and not shying away from maybe not as clean cut and straight forward parts of it were IT for me.
