Ok this book was emotional forreal forreal. Even though I forgot to mark this read and review it until now, when I finished it 4 days ago, I still have a real sense of the sadness that it conjured. A very intense book with a lot of hard-hitting, gorgeous writing and unflinching narrative choices. There were a few things that I had a mild case of the eeks about, but overall, a positive experience!
