Hi, I hated it. Inconsistencies, unsatisfying endings, poor pacing and underused characters galore.

It has been a long time since a story has made me so happy, and yet so terribly sad. I feel like it came at a time in my life to heal me from what I have done, what has happened to me in the past. Laia, Elias, and Helene have inspired me to no end, and I cannot thank Sabaa Tahir enough for breathing life into their stories.

"How do we trust our own happiness, Laia?" I turn toward her, and she traces my lips with her finger. "How do we go on if we don't know if it will be taken away?"
I'm gratified that she doesn't answer right away, thankful that she understands why I ask. Laia isn't who she once was. Her joy is tempered, like mine. Her heart tender, like mine. Her mind wary, like mine. 
"I do not think the answer is in words, love," she says. "I think it is in living. In finding joy, however small, in every day. We'll struggle to find happiness at first, perhaps. But we can trust ourselves to reach for it always. Remember what Nan said."
"Where there is life, there is hope."
