Spoiler
I loved the father I’m glad he didn’t die cuz his son needed him and he was such a good father to his son and daughter like when he would carry his son in order to see him smile or when he talked to her about shaving when he wasn’t supposed to do that. I hate how that grandma died and how she didn’t see Susie in heaven like what??? First of all I loved that grandma I was here for her craziness she just made me smile I really hope they can reunite. Probably the only death I accept is Holiday’s like I could feel his excitement when seeing Susie. I hate how Mr. Harvey died like I really wished for something worse yk like being tortured death was kind of the easy route. Also that one scene when Ray and Susie made love was so cute like bro this is also my first time reading a book that had that in like it kinda described it but not really idk they were just so cute but I hated how it was Ruth’s body and not hers like if would have been better if they had sex with her body but oh well he knew it was her that’s all that matters. Also Lindsey and Samuel are so cute like bro the proposal was cute and everything they got me screaming at night but why would they name their child the same name as her mother? Is everything good now? Does the mother and son now get along well? Was he able to forgive her? So many questions I really would have wished that they were answered or they were clarify better.
