It was beautifully written. I loved Tokue and the kind stubborness she had. The only reason I didn't give it the full five is purely selfish, because I wanted more of the story. I would have loved an epilogue, but I also understand why the author chose to end the story where they did. Overall, if this is your genre then I would recommend. Also don't read this when you're hungry.
