Thoughts

At first, I thought the premise of this book was a bit too far-fetched, but actually as I read through it started to make sense. People process grief in different ways, and writing what you know and as a cathartic process to help with your feelings is absolutely normal. I thought the book part of it was going to play a larger role, in reality it was the photos that blew the whole thing wide open, and then the twist at the end made me uncomfortable in a way that seemed to be fully intended. Interesting, not perfect, but worth a look.
