The writing in this book is so artistic and beautiful, but the story really frustrated me 😂 the characters are the worst, like so selfish and I guess I can’t judge too hard, having not been through what they have, but my goodness… I also found the story and the pace in which it all happened very hard to believe… I am sure this was intended though, which again compliments to the author!
