kind of hard to get into this book as a stand-alone. i'm only keeping at it to compare what i remember of the pilot, and to be with my favourite characters again.

it's like what kate says, grief is just a massive dump the universe has taken on your life.

💩

i'm 207 pages into this book and i'm still surprised by the fact that it makes me cry.

"Grief is layered and complex and a Rubik's Cube of emotions."

not only is this one of my favourite lines (it sums fried up so well), this chapter has explained to me why i'm so mad at my own matt damon(s). so confronting to see it on paper.

don't know if i'll do anything about it, but i may avoid the sending angry messages route that kate took.

this book is like a cuddle and a slap all at once.

i wish this book had a little more charm to it

i've watched this show enough times to know the scene by scene play. jeremy never met phoebe. this must be based off of an older script.

in this night and at this hour i call upon the ancient power

rereading an old fave to get out of my reading slump. the power of three will set my reading slump free!

“I will never lose this one simple truth: I want mt mum. I so am fucking mad that she’s done. And that feeling will never, ever die.”

“Be kind, but don’t put someone else’s needs before your own. Listen, but don’t lose your own voice.”

Kate talks about how people used her status as a Dead Mum Club member as a conversational topic. I’ve experienced the opposite, where I feel like I have to remove this membership from myself because it makes dealing with me unattractive.

“If there is anything you can do to help I will certainly let you know, but unless you can make my mum magically return to life I think I’m good for now.”

grief is so fucked up. it’s the one thing you think you’ve got the right — the goddamn selfish right — to own, and yet you have to share it with everybody else, because they’re grieving too.

“My grief shifted from a coping mechanism to my whole identity.”

“I wanted to saturate the world in my grief, so that maybe someone could understand just how bad I felt.”

“You got this.”
