Only because it was so confusing at first it lost a star for me personally. However this book blew my mind and tugged my heart strings. It was beautiful and tragic and sad and happy. Push through the confusion. I have a feeling this book could go up to 5 stars on a reread.

Loved the unraveling of the mystery through the unreliable narrator’s lens. I found the protagonist to be so precious. Not the most exciting read in the world, but it offered some beautiful prose.
