5.0

i think the way this book allows us to get to know both emilie and sara in such intimate ways before
they ever give in to the pull between them
is so unique. this technique really lends itself to a more dynamic story because of the way the reader understands the weight of the ending in the context of the characters’ histories. 

all in all, such a tender and sweet book. i loved it.
