This book gave me a similar warm and fuzzy feeling like when I read The Giver of Stars by Jojo Moyes. Makes me wanna hug my nan, have a pet, fall in love and crochet. Grief is a strong theme and I felt like it was explored really well. The feelings surrounding grief (not wanting them to go, past griefs effecting how you view life and ability to cope with future grief) wete detailed so honestly, I could really relate to Lorna. 

Also can we talk about Lorna's arc? I loved journeying with her. Such a loveable character and she wasn't AT ANY POINT irritating, which is rare. 

Gabe can kick rocks tho.
