I loved this book and how it follows a family, and tells their story from their perspective, while traveling backward in time. Such a brillnt approach that includes a modern and beautiful look at relationships with significant others, parents, sisters, and caregivers. I loved it.

Also, I got this book through a Storygraph giveaway - icing on the cake!

Not at all what I expected. It really is a dictionary of emotions, and it's really powerful to have an expanded understanding of your own emotions. 🤯
