Truly a beautifully written story of young love and loss. It a story of finding and accepting your sexuality as a youth through a sad circumstance. Loved reading every word of it.

“Living is a blessing and I choose to honor it.” What a beautiful, bittersweet book. First loves, family traumas and legacies, growing up and dealing with all the challenges that accompany that. I was crying by the end, especially with the gas station scene.
