To reiterate what many others have said: easily one of the best books I’ve read (& one of those books that you wanted to turn to the beginning and start all over again immediately after you’ve finished it because you just know it’s one of those books that will further blossom with each read)— lyrically written, with so much depth, words that linger with you long after you’ve read them..

TLDR: I can’t wait to read it again and again.
