Happiness Falls by Angie Kim
5.0

I truly enjoyed this book/story. When life got busy and I had to put it down, I was excited to pick it back up again.  There were so many things I liked about Happiness Falls. 
- I’d repressed a ton of memories starting from March 2020 up until…. Well I think I’m still doing that. But this book takes place in June 2020 and reminded me of the craziness that defined the pandemic. Masking outside, covid exposures tracked by the health department, phone calls to decide exact dates of exposure, etc. What an awful and scary time. 
- Angelman Syndrome and any other disability. Kim does a wonderful job educating and allowing differing points of view. 
- Grief, trauma, and how they affect thought processing
- Kim provides real life examples for how families can and should function amidst life’s obstacles. 
- So many other things, but this review is long enough already. 

Def give this book a read, you won’t regret it.
