I really enjoyed the writing in this book, as certain sentences made me stop and think and then dog-ear the page to revisit later. It's a short book about grief, life, and growing up.
I would definitely suggest this book!
A big thank you to BiblioLifestyle and Ecco Books for a copy of this one!

"I have no interest in ordinary people. having met so few of them in my life."
"There are certain emotions available to me only when I am alone, minor lodgings and notions, a wish to filch and misbehave."
