i don't really know what i expected when i started reading this book, but it definitely wasn't that i'd spend all the last chapters crying.
i think i'd give the book more of a 4.5, and there were some things throughout the story that i didn't really enjoy, but right now, i am way too deep in my feelings to give it any less than 5 stars.

The writing style was challenging to engage at times.
near the end I was so depressed reading it. It had me ugly crying. I am glad Harold had Maureen and their love re-sparked

This story is so beautifully written. It is one of the few books I look forward to re-reading.
