I went into this book knowing what was going to happen but wanting an emotional release. What I didn't expect, was becoming so invested in the characters from the start. Louisa is such a well-developed and dynamic character, and watching her come to terms with the world around her and discover herself is wonderful. I do have to say that once Louisa's trauma is revealed, we rarely hear about it again which was kind of strange. 
This is a beautiful book with a beautiful message to live life to the fullest and choose how you live. Additionally, Will and Louisa have amazing banter that will make you laugh throughout. 
If I had one true critique, it was that there was some very abrupt point of view jumping which could be jarring.

This book literally was comforting but also had me bawling on and off for hours. Highly recommend. It is sweet, then bittersweet, and overall beautiful because of both of those elements.
