A moving novel in verse about grief and struggling to overcome feelings of guilt. I think there is so much power in this story, particularly in the format it was written in. Beautifully strung together and heart breaking while also being hopeful. I did tear up a bit but honestly who wouldn't? I love that these kinds of books exist to help struggling young people, particularly young people of color who experience loss but frequently don't see themselves in stories about loss.
