I received a copy of this book from Net Galley.
This book is at the top of my favorites for 2022 so far. This is a conversation of grief
told by a younger sister mourning the devastating loss of her older sister, her hero and best friend. There is so much more to the story - how parents handle loss, the sister’s popular boyfriend, friendship, and forgiveness. Despite the tragedies that unfold, there are incredible moments of comedy that shine through in the storytelling. A wonderful emotional roller coaster with tears of both loss and laughter.
The narrator of the audiobook is perfect.
