Fans of “How High We Go in the Dark” (and probably “Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow”)- rejoice; it’s exactly what I needed. 

TBH, I was put off at first. The narrator used bizarre third person / present tense, since it it was blatantly(IMO) their own reflection/memoir of sorts? That said, by the end I understood it’s buried importance and glad I didn’t get hung up on that. wanted to rate it a two when the dog died, but held my breath and sobbed at how beautiful the final chapter was. 

Especially with books that make me feel this way I usually go back and buy a hardback to reread, almost explicitly so I can underline and denote those parts, but the entirety of chapter 11 would be flagged underlined and highlighted all to if I had a paper copy. I absolutely plan on doing so anyway. 5 stars and a standing ovation.
