This book, to me, seems like one that I’ll be thinking about for awhile. The thing is, I am a sucker for a sad book. I knew all the hype surrounding the sadness of this book, so I was ready for it. However, no one warned me about that epilogue!!! I definitely cried multiple times while reading this, but I liked it. All that being said, this book feels like it was written in the early 2010’s, which isn’t necessarily a negative, but I do feel like that was a certain era of young adult books that was different from the current one.
