Whoa. This behemoth of a book took me on a true rollercoaster of emotions. I am easily distracted or intimidated when it comes to long books but with this one I only thought about stopping once and that was because I wasn't a fan of Caleb. But oh boy did my feelings change during the story. There were times I loved and hated almost every character I think haha.
This book gave us 3 beautiful love stories in one and I'm in awe.
Yes this book had flaws but what doesn't? It was also beautiful and heartbreaking and frustrating and adorable and pretty much all the emotions I know. I do wish there was more to the epilogue though, compared to the rest of the story it felt very short

A criatividade desse livro é de outro mundo, mas oq me deixou assustada é o quanto a autora se utiliza de abuso sexual durante toda a narrativa.
