Really for the last few month all I've read was romances with hockey players or book where somebody died. I need to break my patterns. 
 This one was heartbreaking and painful, but also hopeful. I saw some comments saying that the portrait of grief here is not very realistic but I can't agree. We all grieve in our own way so there is no really good or bad way to do that. 
 This book reminded me of I Was Here in some ways. 
 I love the writing and all the characters. And, although I was afraid at first that Lex will be portrayed as this helpless, dull, nerdy girl in need of a man she wasn't. She's smart, she's funny, caring, even if she has some difficulties with showing it sometimes.
