Thank you so much to Jolly Fish Press / North Star Editions and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.

Bella’s life has turned upside down, changed so much and now it’s changed again. After losing her mom everything became sad and difficult, now her dad is moving them to the coast to live in his childhood home, but she doesn’t want to leave, her life ad her memories of her mom behind.

This was so beautiful, it had so much heart to it and it really tugs on you whilst reading. Both Bella and her dad hadn’t been able to get through the loss of her mom, the way it was written really captured their pain, their sadness. It was delicately and beautifully crafted, making you really connect and feel everything with them.

The message in a bottle aspect was perfect, i knew myself who was sending them to her, but I loved how she connected to it right away, how she used the bottle to get her feelings out there and that the sender wanted to help her with her grief, it was so sweet.

This book is such a wonderful story, on grief, on how change is difficult when you’ve already had so much of it. On how to struggle to move through it so you can keep living. I really enjoyed reading this book, I also enjoyed that it was in an early readers style so it was easy to read for a younger audience, but packed in so much detail and story that you still can really connect and enjoy it.
