A good read, I enjoyed the honest portrayal of a women dealing with her life that has been thrown into disarray. The story didn't try to show someone who had all of the answers, just a person working to cope with life, day by day, working to find what works for her while throwing away many things that no longer seemed important. Enjoyed the pace and that the book did not end with a sappy happy ending but a promise of better things that might come along with the problems we have.

For anyone who may be trying to work through the loss of a pet and feeling guilty about their emotions, this is a …
