This book is so very weird in the best possible way. It’s also gritty, unglamorous, tender, and impossibly beautiful.

Death isn’t some grand, scary figure, but rather a bit of a hapless rube. And his love interest Molly is doing the best she can under very trying circumstances. Seeing them come together and carve out a life is both heartbreaking and heart-healing.
