The only I could describe this book… magnetic, refreshing, and a little bit raw. It captured all the “New York” feels of equal enchantments and ugliness. It encapsulated so wonderfully the restaurant business with its pretentiousness, it’s people, the food, the tasks, the pettiness, etc. But most importantly it captured the essence of making a life for yourself and finding yourself through losing yourself and experiencing life, not always but sometimes by the pulse of your wrist as mentioned in this book. I absolutely loved this book and fell in love with. The title truly labels the content of the novel.

“Those we love never truly leave us, Harry. There are things that death cannot touch.” 

“In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”
