Warning, do not listen to this while driving because there are some pretty sad parts (but they aren't like so sad that you can't keep listening). As a book that revolves around Thanksgiving with family, we follow along with someone who passes away, and how the family copes, especially two characters. It cut to the core with me this year, but it also shows how much life can go on, even though we don't want it to. It also shows how much we all grieve when someone dies- it isn't just the spouse. Again, I get it a lot and so maybe that's why I loved it. And it ended up happy, so that was good.
