Love, loss, grief, and friendship. I’m a big Lang Leav fan so I couldn’t wait to dive into this. This book almost reads like a non fiction memoir, her storytelling has the same powerful cadence as her poetry.  

This had me bawling from 50-80%, I listened to the audiobook and it was highly captivating from the first chapter.
