For starters, I think almost every character in this book is awful in some sort of way. They are all deeply flawed.
However, this book has GREAT representation, covers the topic of grief and loss beautifully and has some of the most lyrical and gorgeous writing. Like how did this author make prepping a grilled cheese sandwich sound so beautiful, heartbreaking and inspiring.
So glad I picked this one up.
