4.0

Emotional and heartwarming, the book explores the impact of grief, community & found family. Strong character development lended to each charcter having a unique voice and contribution to the overall story. It was difficult to distinguish the time-frame in some parts of the book ecspecially at the start. Well written and flows seamlessly despite being translated from Swedish. A moving read that will bring a tear to your eye.
