This book is, first and foremost, about loss and grief. I had so many things I wanted to say about this book but it all fled my mind because, in a cruel twist of fate, I finished this audiobook while digging a grave in my garden for my cat who was on his way out. Yeah, and that was right around when Wilford comes into the story....
I loved how it was kinda haunted house story, kinda eldritch horror, and a couple other horror tropes sprinkled in, but it is also a wonderful book about dealing with grief. Or not dealing with it. And the horror of the one person who knew the real you leaving you alone on this plane of existence (as you know it). What is heaven? Or the afterlife? Or our concept of reality and life at all?
