First, I have to say that I won this for free from Goodreads...
Now I can say that I LOVED this book! Maybe because I too have experienced the death of my brother, but I found the narrator easy to connect with and relate to. My heart ached for him, as I felt I was experiencing his grief and struggles with him. The authors descriptions were spot on with what I went through- it was clear she did her research (or has experienced it herself). When my own brother passed away, I remember thinking that it's true what they say: everyone handles their grief differently. But what they don't say is that you have to live with others as they handle their grief differently than you do. The author nailed that.
I cannot say enough about this book. Except maybe that I couldn't put it down. I read it in four sittings- all in the same day. I couldn't go to bed without finishing it.
Very very good book.
