From the number of 4 and 5 star reviews with no comments for this book, I am going to guess that a lot of people found this book to be indescribable in the way it made them feel. This is an amazing book about love and loss and coping with the death of a parent and I recommend it to anyone of all ages. It broke my heart every single time I read it as a teen.
was a very good book
