this was an amazing book. it was my first time reading anything of the sort, so i was unsure what to expect, but let me tell you: it was not that. my only gripe is: i wish she had made the passage of time more clear. it was very hard at times to figure out what period of time things are taking place in, or how close in successions events occurred. this book took my heart, held it, crushed it, bandaged it up, spit on it, and threw it in a dumpster. there were some parts of the book i had to re-read or sit and think about, but i think that's a positive more than it is a negative; it made my brain put in effort. the pacing got a little shaky at times, but the overall story + the ending made everything worthwhile.
