This was such a special read for me. I'm from small town Wisconsin as well, so this just hit me right in the feels; Nostalgia on every page. This book had the laughs, the love, the sorrow, the friends and the family. I actually was surprised by the storyline of Cooper, very deep. My favorite part would be the journey of the funeral ladies and relating with someone in my life who would fit right in with them. I would recommend this book over and over!
