Heart-wrenching.

What an emotional ride! Claudia's story broke my heart and it will be a while before I can recover. The only thing keeping this book from 5 stars was the time sequence of the book. It was labeled as Before, After, One year before the Before, and I just couldn't establish what the defining moment was that created the before and the after.
