Writing was a 5 but I’m reserving 5s for books I absolutely loved. This one was really well done and nearly there. Huge trigger warning to suicide in this book as the story centers around a woman who loses her husband to suicide and depicts her grief journey. I listened to the audiobook version and loved how well Adjoa Andoh narrated this book. She was truly acting and added so much to the emotional scenes. The writing was amazing and I loved the depictions of grief and the realistic portrayal of loss during this book. I’m lucky (knock on wood) that I haven’t experienced a lot of loss in my life, but this book made me think and consider so much more about grief and some of the relationships around me. It made me think about those who are in my corner and in my circle and the bounds of our relationships.
