Got hit with a wave of sadness as soon as I got to the beach today, missing grandma so much and just overall not feeling my greatest, so hoping this book will help make sense of things a bit and ease my mind while I’m on vacation. Shoutout Victoria for thinking of me after reading this and wanting me to read it too💕
