Also, the triggers list is very very long and you should check it out before picking up this book, personally I don’t recommend it, I didn’t cry (mostly because I didn’t connect with the characters) and I didn’t enjoy it, even though it’s beautifully written and it’s certainly the portrayal of life, I just wish it would’ve been… more. I would’ve also loved it if the whole book was from Harold’s POV, I found his chapters to be the most touching, engaging and emotional.

I don’t really know what to say about this book. It broke my heart but still managed to make me love it - well maybe love is not the right word but incredibly attached. Reading it felt like being a part of the story. Suffering the same fate Harold does. They all (but especially Jude) have a soft spot in my heart and I will be thinking about this book for a long time.
