Thank you NetGalley and Viking for this eCopy to review

The Collected Regrets of Clover is a beautiful book, it had me gripped from the first page to the last as we follow Clover in her job as a Death Doula. Due to not being upset when her teacher died whilst teaching his class, losing her parents at a young age and living with her grandfather Clover has removed herself from life. She is unable to forgive herself for not being with her grandfather when he died. She works as a death doula as penance and does not make any friends. All this changes when a new neighbour moves in, Sylvie forces Clover to go out and try new things with her and to be her friend.

Clover also meets a potential boyfriend at the death cafes she goes to. He hires her to help his grandma who is dying and her friendship with Claudia also helps Clover overcome her regrets and go out and embrace life. I don't want to say much more as it would spoil the book but it truly was uplifting and a call to go out and live your life to the fullest so that you have no regrets when it ends

Absolutely loved it! Character was very well written and flawed. One of my ultimate favorites.
