Small book, huge impact. 
I read this book in less than two hours in the middle of the night (Jetlag) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Will devour this book again and again. 
You know, you kinda know what’s coming in the end. Still, I was not prepared. Definitely needed a good cry. 
What I especially admire about this book it that it acknowledges issues and still forgives. The past is the past. Second chances exist and people can heal.
