on a serious note, it was nice to see someone get better.
I took one of my hands in the other, tried to imagine what it would feel like if it was another person’s hand holding mine. There have been times when I felt that I might die of loneliness. People sometimes say they might die of boredom, that they’re dying for a cup of tea, but for me, dying of loneliness is not hyperbole. When I feel like that, my head drops and my shoulders slump and I ache, I physically ache, for human contact—I truly feel that I might tumble to the ground and pass away if someone doesn’t hold me, touch me.

Honestly, I expected this to be 3,5, 4 stars maximum, and I had no idea what to expect.
I will not get into the spoilers, but this book kept me on my toes, the characters and their relationships kept me engaged and entertained, and I couldn't wait to pick up the book again.
This will definitely go on my cool-to-recommend pile :D
