Now I’m extra sad I didn’t have money to back the kickstarter! This book was absolutely beautiful, and I’ve already pre-ordered the regular hardback. The story overall is fun, sweet, and lovely. The audiobook is amazingly read, but there were so many moments- little turns of phrases or paragraphs from the narrator- that deeply resonated with me so that I really wanted to sit and stare at it for a while. I foresee myself rereading this in print later this year and then periodically rereading or relistening to it whenever I need something hopeful and comforting.
