I found this hard to put down in the same way it's hard not to look at an accident on the side of the road. Some of the letters brought tears to my eyes (especially when reading the backstory), but others left me oddly desensitized to the concept of love letters. I could have written a few of these myself--though they were so very in the moment, reading them in a collection made them lose a little of their individuality.

I haven't given the finger to anyone driving since I met you." â?¢ "With you I learned how to fight cleaner, how to talk things out better, and how to make a strong loving family out of nothing. These are priceless gifts that I will carry with me the rest of my life. One more thing you did for me: you left, and I had to get through it." â?¢ "P.S.
