I. Devoured. This. 

Started yesterday while waiting for a parade to stop and before bed and the. Downloaded the audio this morning and listened to in my 4 hour drive home at 1.5x speed so I could finish it. Right after one of the biggest twists my car decided it didn’t want to keep playing it and I was so annoyed. Listened to the last 20 minutes (sped up) in the evening before bed and I am just SO enamored. 

The writing is punchy and perfectly paced, the characters are endearing, and while it hits on some really serious stuff that I normally avoid, it did it in a gentle, light way instead of going the grief porn route, which I appreciate.
