I have no words, just wow. This book is one of the best books I’ve read in a little while and the first 5⭐️ I’ve given since October!!
This book was heartbreaking and beautiful and I genuinely couldn’t recommend it enough. I loved the authors style of writing and the way she portrayed the lives of the 2 brothers in only 230 pages, is was just incredible. I loved that it had the POV of the two brothers and that it alternated between past and present, it was just written so well!! I haven’t cried so much at a book in a very long time and it’s definitely going up there as one of my favourites as it was fantastically written for such a short book. It was heartbreaking, funny and a book I wouldn’t necessarily have read if not recommended by my brother so it just really surprised me how much I enjoyed it. I couldn’t recommend it more and definitely give it a read if your ready to shed some tears

I fucking listened to Abstract by Hozier immediately after - don't do that.

Bought this one a while ago, but never got around to reading it until now when the title seemed to speak to me. All I can say is tears - beautiful characters, beautiful setting in the Flats, and beautiful writing.

💔💔💔
Hjerteknuser altså. 
Leste over halve boken nå i ett og tårene rant kontinuerlig fra før jeg var halvveis. 
Jeg elsker Finn ❤️


Nå skal jeg gå å lese noen dumme romancebøker 😅

I don’t think I’ll ever read this without crying - the most heartbreakingly beautiful book and one of my all time favourites.
