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.

Sorry For Your Loss

Review by BizzyIzzy

I loved this book! You get to learn a lot about Jewish funerals and it’s just a good book in general. It can sometimes get a bit boring so if you’re looking for something super exciting this book might not be for you. If you like books about friendship than you should maybe give this book a try. Highly recommend!

Best book ever

Review by MARA2015

This is a really good book because it is sad and happy. Evie learned how to be a good friend to Oren after he lost his parents. Everyone deserves a friend and Evie and Oren were lucky to find eachother when they needed one another most.
