Entertaining fantasy, if a little generic. Kinda slow in the first 2/3rds and the plot reveal was so blindingly obvious. Characters were fun

This surprised me! The artwork is some of the most beautiful I've seen and the spirits, magic, animals and heroine were amazing.

I'm going to start this by saying I have never cried so hard whilst reading a book - I'm talking full chest heaving, uncontrollable tears. (You have been warned incase you plan to read this in public)
This is a tender caring story of grief, love, loss, found family, acceptance, sadness and what comes after death.
I loved every character in the Charon Cross Tea shop with my whole heart; Wallace our recently deceased businessman, Hugo our precious caring ferryman, Mei a strong protective reaper, Nelson the hilarious grandfather to Hugo and Apollo the goodest ghost doggo ever.
Although centered around a deep subject of loss and death this was also about all forms of love, love of a pet, past loves, platonic love, romantic love and lost love.
Truly a beautiful, compassionate, quirky, and at time humourous novel that melted my heart.
Thank you to Netgalley and Tor for providing me with an ARC of this novel.

This was atmospheric and chilling (in the best way) but also heartbreakingly sad.

Had very lyrical writing but I was confused throughout and it felt impersonal somehow
