Review: 

Okay, well first things first, if you're looking for a happy and uplifting book this definitely is not the book to go for. However, if you are looking for a sad and poignant book this is the perfect one.

When  I first started this book I really was not sure if I would enjoy it or not as I really was not sure what it was about but after a chapter or two I began to really get into this book. Although be warned that it ends on a real cliffhanger. I was so intrigued that after five minutes of finishing the book I purchased the second and I'm already excited to read it.

This book really focuses on how different people are affected by death and loss and how everyone reacts differently to it. I personally cried a few times throughout the book because the authors have really captured the characters feelings and it definitely pulls you in and leaves you wanting to find out more.
