dark emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.0

Absolutely devastating. With a lot of humor, but made me miserable. It was really hard reading this knowing he’s gone. In the first line of the book, he says he should be dead and to read this as if it’s from the beyond… which it was as I listened. I cannot fathom the pain he went through and hope he’s finally at peace.
