This was good, I think? It is not written like anything else I’ve read before. It’s an example of how every person processes grief in a different way. I was intrigued the entire book. Very character drive with lots of memories and flashbacks.

This made me sob. This story is so heartbreaking. It’s about family and self. About our pasts catching up with us.

This book includes stories from so many people: disabled folks living at intersections of other marginalized identities, different disabilities and levels of mobility, and from a wide range of backgrounds. I especially enjoyed the essay on asexuality and disability! Each of these perspectives taught me something new and I learned so much from these stories.

Out of the three in this series, this may have been my favorite! I really enjoyed the plot lines and thought the characters were well developed. It was a tad long for me, I was really losing focus at the end - but still had a lot of fun reading this!
