Its a story about a girl who lost her only parent, her Mom, and how she deals with the world after that. She goes about her life finding herself alone, and then not. It's about found family, yet it is mainly about grief, and how different people deal with it.
Emotional. Packs a punch. The second person perspective made it hit harder than it should have.
A few things at the end feel rushed - I felt they were added as an afterthought... Just to add more pain and suffering in the character's life, or to introduce a few characters at the last moment.
Some thought provoking questions were asked, some tear jerking scenes. Can make you cry.

i wish i read this one sooner, after losing my cousin who meant the world to me, i was just as lonely and sad as tiger..
this book is great for grieving people, friends of grieving people, people without any contact to grieving…
this is a beautiful, heartbreaking and at the same time healing book!
(still not as good as girl in pieces tho)
thank you kathleen glasgow for turning the hard things life into something wonderful!!
