“my jaw is on the floor!!!! absolutely loved every single second of it! i loved how much depth this book had and the really insightful and heartbreaking conversations surrounding grief. live laugh loved this book! 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
some quotes that stood out to me!
‘and by not in love, you mean your souls are intrinsically, infinitely, inseparably intertwined because practically all your earlier memories have been made with him and even as an adult you’ve been incapable of going one day without thinking about how he’s the only person on planet Earth who will understand you in the way that he does’
‘i feel fine one second, and then the next it feels like my world is tilting and i can’t breathe anymore.’
‘grief isn’t something you can run away from. and if you try, it will tackle you from the back.’”
