A very wholesome and quirky read which I whole heartedly enjoyed. 

This book is filled with some great heartwarming encounters as we see the relationships grown between the various characters - particularly between Tova and Marcellus whose character interactions will hold a special place in my heart. 
 
The plot was quite clever in the way the characters lives intwined - even if I was able to predict at times - and woven together through themes of grief.

Overall my favourite thing about this book is the writing style! It was so beautifully written and created such a lighthearted narrative despite heart heavy themes. Glad I finally got round to reading.
