4.25

Was sitting around a 3.75 or solid 4, but the genuine feeling and warmth I felt in the last group of chapters meant I had to bump it up. A few things I wanted to query, but maybe the hyper-critical part of my brain should take a backseat sometimes and not let it judge my entire opinion. Would still recommend.

It was a very interesting premise and.. though it got a little long in the middle/ approx 75-85% … it was a beautiful story and I felt like it had a great message
