I love a story about friends that become family, how we find people and become part of each other's lives.

This little family is made up of Mad, Coco, Zuz and Baz.
Vic is an outsider too, he feels alone in the world after his father's death. One day, his path crosses with the group and no one's life will be the same.

I loved the strength and uniqueness of each character. They protected each other above everything and found safety in a world that hadn't provided much for them.

Yes, there is a show more murder in the story but it's hardly the biggest part of this story. I think the journey to sprinkle Vic's dad's ashes was so enjoyable.

There were a few especially beautiful lines. I loved the Chapters.

A beautiful, unique story about family, friendship, love and self acceptance.
