I have just finished this in the bath and I don’t think I can o justice with words in this review as when my daughter asked if it was good I made some odd sounds lol.I then left it on her bed and said you must read this!
I had heard lots of good things about this book but it will exceed any expectations you may or may not have .
I whizzed through over 2 days even with the kids off and you find due to its lay out its so hard to put down .
Clare’s writing and characters will capture your heart instantly and you will laugh and cry and marvel at this amazing book .
Such a easy enjoyable read but it deals with heavy subjects that I could relate to and you can feel Pearls emotions on each page .
Grief is a huge emotion and makes us think and do weird things and this book will show that and a whole lot more.
A story of family friendship love loss and written with such sensitivity .
