Sentence Review-Please Help.
I am struggling with the below sentence and not sure whether to put a comma after the word 'toys'.
'More photos, poems, and some small soft toys were put in the already claustrophobic box, along with his body.'
What do you think? I'm thinking that it's fine as it is, but just looking for confirmation.
Thanks
Ryan.

'The paper was lined with a slight skin of moisture that had come from her sweaty palm.'
Do you think that sentence is correct or should it be 'which had come from her sweaty palm'?
Thanks

CB gave you the answer in your other thread: "Both pronouns are correct. That is probably more common than which, at least in American English."
