I was reading this book while listening to more of the problems going on in Washington and a man falling out of a plane.  There was all kinds of news to be depressed about and then I was reading this book and found some really nice people - Fiona getting through the loss of her parents but still putting one foot in front of the other because that's what you do, or you lay down and die, too.  Then there is Gray who is just a really nice guy - dependable and kind.  The kind of guy you hope your sons will grow up to be.  There are students I saw in my own classrooms and miss now that I no longer teach.  This book just had so much to relate to.  There were times there were challenges, but life has pain and in the end, there was happiness and you knew there would be.  So the bad news on the telly was easier to put on the back burner for at least a while.
