Happy Friday friends! This week Claire talks about the beautifully written Everything Was Beautiful & Nothing Hurt by Ben Reeves. An extremely thought-provoking and emotional look into death and grief in the modern world, the main character Travis is actually Death and sits with people in their final hours of life. He then befriends his neighbor Dalia and her daughter Layla. What follows is a beautiful story. You will cry, so definitely read with tissues!

Stop in today to pick up your copy!
