Beautiful and powerful.
You may have snot running down your face while ugly crying at parts of this book, but it will be worth it.

In the end everything came together.
What a great story about love, loss and grief. Love each other before it's too late...

This book took me a minute to get into. I wasn’t entirely sure what direction it was going to go. This is a story with a lot of heart, especially for a high fantasy (or maybe a lot of high fantasy books have heart and I just haven’t read them). There were moments in this book that I cried real tears. In reflecting on the book with others, they had similar emotions but in different scenes, leading me to believe that this truly is a book for everyone. Misaki’s storyline is one of family, resilience, survival, community, and love. I adored it.
