I loved it!!!

This book shattered my heart. It made me feel in the pieces I thought were too broken.

This book makes me believe my heart is the sun, the moon, and the stars.

This book is...life!

Thank you, Roxane Gay, for acknowledging and being a voice for us difficult women.

I'm still clutching at the tightness in my chest. This book was so personal. I had to stop a few times due to the blurred vision brought on by the never-ending stream of tears.
This book evoked so many emotions; I laughed, I shook my head in bewilderment, and I bawled.
Narrated by 11-year-old Cal whose brother is battling cancer; Cal gives insight on the effect cancer has on siblings and loved ones. Most importantly, it’s about life and the importance of living and loving while we have the chance to.

These unforgettable characters will definitely hold a special place in my heart.

I read this book twice.
The first time I thought it was just me. Second time around, I realized it wasn't. It was quite dull.
