This graphic novel is a duel journey: the first beings Kit's journey as she stays in Bardo for 49 days, and the second being the journey her friends and family take to heal from her passing. 

Grief is never a fun thing to deal with, especially when you are robbed of someone you love. The hole they leave behind is impossible to fill, but you learn to live around it and honor the person you lost. 

This graphic novel honors that process beautifully. I'm grateful this story has been shared with the world.
