Oh god where do I start? This book was amazing this is the first Kathleen Glasgow book I've ever read and it certainly won't be my last. I wasn't expecting to like this book as much as I did but I 100% did. Overall great book it's so far the 3rd book I've ever read to make me cry (I don't really cry at books) so crying during class while reading this was a great surprise.

I have officially finished Kathleen Glasgow’s big 3. This one was just has heart breaking and beautiful as Girl in Pieces and You’d be home now. This is a book all about grief. A young girl loses her mom and her whole life is turned upside down, she gets passes home to home, loses a friend, but gains more. She makes discoveries that her mom kept from her, that led her meeting a sister she never knew she had. I thought this story was super realistic, and then I read the author’s note and found out this story was based off the author and her mother. 💔💔💔💔
