The Meaning of Birds by Jaye Robin Brown

4.0

Jess struggles with anger management in coping with her father's death, which only compounds with the loss of her love, Vivi. Really loved the nuances and mess involved in the depiction of grief. Love is complicated, and so is mourning the inexplicable loss of those you love. None of the characters are perfect (although Cheyanne was a little bit too stereotypical for me personally) and it makes the story feel more relatable and real as they try to figure it out.
