I didn't love the art style, even though the pops of colours between the cool blues were mesmerizing, but the poignant story is truly touching. Respectfully written, it addresses difficult topics such as death, ageing, dementia and mental health struggles.
The main character, Estelle, is a kind and empathetic nurse in an assisted living centre, but the work eventually takes a toll on her, especially every time she loses the people she literally cares for.
In the end, those people were her family too, and will always be a part of her life and her most precious memories. Without making spoilers, I think that's why the end is so fitting, although surprising.
Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
