oh my god oh my god. i give anything that makes me cry five stars. just the right amount of pretentious. extremely well written, amazing thoughts about god, characters i felt extremely connected to even though in the grand scheme of things you don’t get to know all of them that well. incredible. i think there are definitely some issues if i dig deeper into it but i have to abide by my cry = five stars rule until i’m more emotionally vulnerable i guess. finished it all in one sitting
