Mitch Album did it again!!!!!!! I absolutely love this author. Even though his books have a lot of sad elements, his stories are always so touching and beautiful. His book ‘for one more day’ was the first and only summer reading book I ever enjoyed. 

This book….. so beautiful. I listed to the audiobook narrated by the author and the ending made me bawl my eyes out, out of both sadness and joy. 10/10 book and 10000/10 author

Short but powerful book that follows Annie, the girl Eddie saved in the first book. It was heartbreaking at times and altogether bittersweet as we learned with Annie what “mistakes” mean and how we are connected to others and across lifespans. Bad note: I am now afraid of hot air balloons.

This struck me as very true. An amazing sequel that *also* ripped up my heart and sewed it back together a little kinder, with more understanding of life, eternity, and divinity.
