Absolutely GUTTED by how exact—to a T—Cara Bastone’s portrayal of grief in this book!? Ma’am, I’m like crying every other chapter? Those excruciating and paralyzing episodes of grief? That feeling of being afloat and detached? You’re smiling and ok now, but suddenly one trigger SLAMS you back to this deep dark sadness you think, you BELIEVE is un-survivable. Reading with braced shoulders coz I’m scared

currently getting sucker punched by that familiar, raw, paralyzing reality of grief. Might vomit. Send help, send help! 😭🤍
