A review by andreaprinzi
The Astonishing Life of August March by Aaron Jackson

4.0

I really enjoyed this whimsical (albeit it a bit sad) book. The story felt a bit like Phantom of the Opera meets Les Miserables with a little more levity. The primary characters are well-developed and relatable, and I found myself feeling a lot for August and his struggles. I think the story also touches on a topic I think of constantly: all the ways we can give and receive love in this life.
