“Oh, but history moved in such vicious circles.”


There hasn’t been anything that has ruined me as much as the last 25 pages of this torture device. How did it manage to annihilate when you expect a tragic ending? I am speechless, a shell of a person, completely drained of tears and never able to move on.
