Good, but a lot heavier than I expected submitted by nemiller on June 19, 2022, 3:10pm I feel like it was advertised as "gallows humor, with an emphasis on *humor*" when it was actually more "gallows humor, with an emphasis on *gallows*". Even having read some pretty serious stuff on her website and in her first book, I still found the book a lot heavier than I expected. Very much a book about grief, and coping imperfectly.

I'd still recommend it, but readers should go in knowing what they're getting into.
