whoever told me this is a romance novel will not see heaven. i was expecting a story about love transcending war like some kind of IDIOT and i ended up getting exactly that but in a completely different way than i was prepared for and now that ive finished it i feel like a piece of my soul is missing

Omg was the ending so sad and depressing, but also so inspiring. This was such an interesting and important story, to read about these women who have been forgotten from the war and all that they did. The story or family and friendship and survival was just so beautiful.
