I adored this book so much. Milly Johnson is one of my favourite authors and this is one of the best i've read of hers. I haven't read many books on the subject of grief and i feel like this book handled a difficult subject very well. I loved the concept of Molly's club and feel like this is something that so many people would benefit from, I kind of wished it was featured a little more in the story. It was emotional, there was some drama, there were funny moments. My favourite part of the book was the middle part, where things started to get revealed and uncovered. I have rated this book 4.75 stars as i wish there was a a few more pages on the end to make a slightly stronger ending, with perhaps more dialogue. It was a good ending, i just hoped for a touch more after such a strong, wonderful book. I feel like so many people would benefit from reading this book, it was an enjoyable read that really made me understand how different people can experience grief so i feel like i can be more understanding and empathetic in the future. A stunning book
