This book was really good!

Review by Aubrey

It was a nice mixture of sad, happy, and funny, with relatable characters and an interesting plot. It’s about a girl named Evie whose parents own a funeral home. She meets a boy named Oren who’s parents recently died, and tries to help him recover. I recommend this book to people who like realistic fiction and slightly sad stories.

Amazing, Amazing Book

Review by mhk312

This was an amazing, heartfelt, loving story. One of the best PJ books I have ever read. If you normally cry while reading, be prepared to cry during this book.

This is a really good book to help kids learn about loss. One of the best PJ books I've read. My sister read it after me and she loved it too!

Awesome book!

Review by Favorite25

Definitely one of the best PJ books I've read so far. It's fascinating, though it can be pretty sad at times. It made me laugh and cry at the same time. It was really cute to see friends connect as well as family through hard times. It was sad, funny, and heart-warming all together. Definitely a super/must-read.
