dark emotional mysterious sad tense

something about reading a book that feels like it belongs on a school curriculum at 27 is odd, but that’s my bad

This book pulled at my heart. The imagery of the marsh is lovely, and the story of this girl’s life breaks you down and builds you back up. I loved this book. I recommend to everyone.

When I first started reading this, I assumed that the book would end tragically and I'm so pleased that it didn't. It ended in such a hopeful, but honest and real way. The book is tragic throughout. Loneliness and love are the main themes. I feel that the book concluded in a way that honoured both of those things perfectly.
