A lovely exploration of grief, family, and self-care. So sweet, but so real. The relationships and different kinds of love highlighted throughout this story are ones you don't often read about — a grandmother and granddaughter's bond, elderly friendship and loneliness, elderly dating and romance, grieving as a family, and more. I loved this little gem.
