Im in no way qualified to critique. So my pleb opinion is.

Im liking the topic of dealing with grief.

I get a good sense of what the character personalities are.

I very much enjoy the spiritual aspects as they are personal to me.

I enjoy the story having a balance of logical and creative topics.

In the last chapter I enjoyed the distinction between Manhattan and the boroughs. I am from some of the less desirable neighbourhoods there. I grew up in Queens.

I am able to envision the bars and pubs as Ive been in many however Im not getting a clear picture in my head of the paintings. But that could just be me.

Keep up the great work.
