1 min read

BATB score: 10/10 🤍
for heaven and everyone up there
Best to: beautifully written, very easy to grasp on the concepts of death, love, life, sacrifices, memories, and meaning
Best for: maybe the best self-help book out there! powerfully narrated via a short novel; more moving than any 1-2-3 step self-growth book
Now, I am reminiscing about all the faces and friendships; and now this extrovert-turned-introvert me who is living in midlife solitude just want to cry an ugly cry
Best as: a reminder that everything we love will end; so, cherish them (even with this covid unfavourable state - better make the best memories out of it)
Best snippet: "That's what heaven is. You get to make sense of your yesterdays."
