I have never cried as much with any book as this one, and this is not hyperbole. This was such a lovely story; beautifully written; and it was fantastic, sad, epic, everything I expected it to be and still managed to surprise me. It is probably one of V.E. Schwab’s best works and the reason she will forever be my favorite author. 
I have nothing else to say for now, as I just have finished the story. Will probably come back soon to write a full review, but for now I feel completely satisfied and very hopeful about the ending. Highly recommend!

This is one of my all-time favorite books. Addie is such a well-developed and relatable character. The book is pretty slow-paced (at times) but it was never boring because VE Schwab's writing is so beautiful and I savored every word of it. This is the only book of her's that I have read, but she automatically became one of my favorite authors and I am definitely going to check out her other books next. I will say that I didn't care very much for the plot at certain times and I had some issues with some of the other characters. I also
didn't like the ending at all
.  I found myself wanting more chapters about Addie's past and what her life was like leading up to the main plot of the book.
