This book was okay, but not necessarily for me. It is incredibly important to take the time to process grief, particularly if one's feelings towards the person who died are ambivalent. Yet...there were a few parts that I think could have been left off in the publicized version, like the photos of her deceased parents' room (it just felt unnecessarily invasive for me, but others may enjoy it). Also, nitpicking, but I personally just prefer a clearer font if there are going to be multiple pages of just text in a graphic novel.

This book is a must read for any one who has aging parents. It is written with humor but it is positively spot on!

a really honest and un-flowery meditation on grief, death, and the end of one’s life. im definitely a little younger than the target audience for this but i loved it!!
