The In-Between: Unforgettable Encounters During Life's Final Moments by Hadley Vlahos

challenging emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

4.5

I purchased this book a while ago but didn't pick it up until a week after the passing of my cat, Finn. I knew this was what I needed to read and it has helped and comforted me greatly. 

The book itself is broken into chapters, each character having their own. I often read just one story at a time, meaning that the book read quickly and had a fast pace, but I took my time reading it. The writing was clear, easy to follow, and didn't feel repetitive at all. I was moved and inspired, but it was also light enough that I wasn't bawling the whole way through. 

I know the author has an accent and I'm not sure if that was what was coming through the writing, but some parts read a little awkwardly, but that may just be where I'm from! 

I hope more people read this lovely book, and maybe it will offer some comfort.
