This book makes me cry every time. I check it out from the library at least five times a year (I really should just buy it at this point) and it never fails to make me laugh, cry, everything in between. I love that the author lets her character grieve in a way that is messy and angry and not set on a timeline or constrained by any social status quo. These characters are not perfect, but they're so real and raw, and I like it better that way.
