One of the best and most impactful books I've read in a while! What an interesting concept, and such an amazing page-turner. It was so much fun to travel through time and space with Nora, discovering all the different lives she could have had, but in the end to realise the beauty and effect of little everyday things was truly inspiring. I could talk about this book forever and all the different lessons and philosophical nuances, but right now, after just finishing it, I simply cannot fathom! 
P.S read for Laufey's book club! Always trust that queen!
