A Novel

Kelsey Holtaway

I ended up reading this in a day. A sweet fast read about grief, health, growth, family, and friendship. The characters and relationships felt so alive.

I enjoyed this book, but the more I read her writing post The Interruption of Everything has become kind of formulaic. It was still a fun read.
