Absolutely gorgeous. 

This book is such a compassionate, beautiful look at humanity, mental health and neurodiversity, trauma, grief, the mental health profession, librarianship, literature and the struggles and joys of everyday life.

I'm deeply moved by this book. It was a hard read and with every beautiful word. Sometimes you feel a book was written uniquely for your, and this is one of those books.
