"Here in some way we are young forever"

I have no words. That plot twist had me reading the rest absolutely gobsmacked and in tears. Don't underestimate the tension in the chapters leading up to the plot twists either because knowing you're about to find something huge out and not being able to turn the pages quick enough, is such an overwhelming feeling haha. Also looking back It's was to notice that almost everything is important and means something. I don't think there were any accidents written into this book. 

The writing throughout this novel is so beautiful and the imagery created is breathtaking. The use of metaphors is so clever and really added something unique and memorable to the story. This could be a literally masterpiece, but I'm not sure I'm qualified enough to award that title. That being said I did get the ick a few times but was that really a big deal, the romance was cute anyhow.

If you’re going to read this please stop reading reviews - this book is incredible when you have no idea what is going to happen!

The plot twist is actually insane, kept me on my toes the entire time I was reading, one of my favorite books of all time! Had me all emotional towards the end, but I read it in one sitting and couldn’t put it down
