 This book reads like a love letter. Maybe it was the fact that it was written in second person, something that seems to create an intimacy between author and reader, while also forcing the reader to slow down-- using a point of view that novels are not often written in. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something slow, intimate, and beautiful.
