No one knows how to knock the wind out of me like Nina LaCour. So gut wrenching and raw but oh so real. I know she’s spoken about her personal experiences with grief, but oh boy does she tap really tap into that with this one. This book was filled with so much longing, so much aching to the point where it felt like my chest was caving in. The ending was beautiful and warm and welcoming and much needed.
