grief.....grief.....im scared about the book and also about my life

mannnn horse standing on the beach image

got swept up in the beautiful prose and now this book just makes me wanna cry. which is crazy bc so little has actually happened but im just. the grief is crazy. very much a child's, generational grief. the kind of thing you don't even recognize as grief until later. it's 3am

page 73 crazy good had to read it so many times but it was worth it

"It is, as she said, difficult to describe someone, since memories are by their nature fragmented, isolated, and arbitrary as glimpses one has at night through lighted windows." pg 53 BEAUTIFULLLLLL
