An incredible sequel to a really important story! 

Jeff gets out of the hospital and has to get back to his life and all the changes that means. He has to navigate being out, the aftermath of his suicide attempt, and his relationships with other people. 

As someone who has been hospitalized, Jeff's story of what comes after really resonated with me. It didn't pretend Jeff's mental health struggles disappeared or "got better" but tackled his ups and downs. I loved Chrys and Goldie and what they mean to Jeff. Every character is complicated with their own histories and stories, and they're woven together really well. 

Thank you to the author for giving us the sequel Jeff deserved!
