This book felt like a warm hug. It explored grief, fear of the unknown, and our complex vision of self while also navigating the excitement of falling in love, the warmth of a friend, and self actualisation. Adam and Alison felt like complex characters who understood each other to their core and helped each to navigate the tricky feelings and emotions that arise while grieving. I love this story and I find myself wanting to know what is next for them!

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
