Dealing with a close death of my own, I decided to dive into this book and consumed it in two days. sad, sobering, relatable I would be hesitant to recommend it to just anyone but if you are in the right mind state it is a beautiful written work. I really liked the seeming appreciation and hope afforded to friends when in hard places in the final chapter. Friends can make all the difference in hard times.
