Definitely a book to be looking out for. This is incredible! It’ll be on Amazon on May 15th. It’s written by the family that runs #talkingstory on youtube!

“Be grateful we do not get what we deserve, dear boy. If we did, paradise would be empty, and this life would be even darker and more difficult than it is.”

What an incredible read. This book had a totally different vibe than the previous books. So dark and brutal, but at the same time balanced with the struggle of humankind to endure suffering, and how that suffering, grief, and loss changes you. This was a masterclass in showing that.

“It was not grief that pained me then, but love. Love consumes, so the aphorism goes. I have not found it to be so. Love is not a burden—though it is a responsibility. A duty. Love is an honor—an office we hold. An oath.”

This book is riveting and so incredibly well written. Ruocchio’s prose, especially his usage of metaphors and elegant, yet succinct way of getting across ideas are truly unique. This book stands high above the first book and I can not wait to start the third book.
