I liked Griz and the dogs, I liked how things tied together and how there was some breaking of the fourth wall / commentary
The book is emotional and dark yet also hopeful and a refute of nihilistic views towards the end of the world.
Would oddly compare it a bit to Fredrick Backman books even though this has more danger & death. Both write about humanity, morality, purpose & meaning, love/family/relationships, bonds with animals, ethics, religion, imagination/stories.
