This book was simply stunning. I adored the fantastical elements of magical realism woven throughout the story. Each character was richly developed. A beautifully written ode to love.

I loved the fairytale-like sentences, magical realism and all the subtle motifs! Also, most of this book is set in Seattle, and her descriptions of the flora and the climate gave me such PNW heartache <333
