Aidyn, a reporter for the Kansas City Star, asserts herself too far. Her superiors send her on an assignment that is perceived as insulting-writing someone's obituary. Clara Kip has been admitted to a hospice care unit. Intitially Aidyn assesses her subject as ordinary. As she begins to ask questions and research this woman's life, she discovers not only an interesting life but one that has impacted others for eternity.
I loved Mrs. Kip! She reinforced the importance of truly loving people and reminding oneself that each person before us are eternal souls. She also teaches the reader how to live and to die well.
I did not think the character of Aidyn was well-developed. I did not connect to her or like her. It seemed like she was only necessary to reveal Mrs. Kip.
*Highly recommend but see my above assessment.
