Loved

It's strange, it's beautiful, it's imaginative, and honestly like nothing I've ever read before. And that's what I loved about it, because it reminded me of what it felt like reading fantastical stories as a kid.

I'm sorry, I'm not really good with geography. but that book was also devastating. It reminds you of the human condition and really prioritize what it means to be human and loving and caring and just being present.

And if Grieving Sisters isn't necessarily your thing, I would also recommend Tuesdays with Morrie, which is devastating. That book is really good because you do get to find videos of this guy, Morrie, after you read the book, and it's just It really puts things into perspective.
