this ending was just beautiful. the book on the whole was such a journey and a messy one at that. it took me a while to read because of things going on in my own life but i really enjoyed dipping into this story and how mellors gives us multiple perspectives and spans a great amount of time. it really got me thinking about how some relationships are not meant to work out but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have happened at all, everything happens for a reason and everything will be okay.

I could have very easily not liked this book, but somehow, I ended up loving it - a perfect character-driven study of a cluster of people, a storyline reminiscent of TV-show episodes, and writing that touched something in me.
I can see why many people did not enjoy it (as much), but just let me have my reading experience pls
