This book 🥹 I enjoyed this book so much more than I thought I would and wish more people would read it, or at least give it a chance!!
There is a reason this is a five star read. This writing is beautiful, intentional, and meaningful. Each word was written with purpose. Everything in this story; backstory, inner monologue, character, had reason. I LOVED how everything was wrapped up in the end. Of course I cried 😠Ugh, please read!!
Last thought, Six-thirty is my favorite character. I highlighted so many of his parts. He is a wise dog.
