 I finished this book sobbing. Was the ending even sad? It made me feel sad like 'To Build a Home' by The Cinematic Orchestra makes me sad. It made me feel a lot, not just sad; there was a lot of hope in this book too. 

Not a lot of stories get me to shut of my structure-analysis-brain like this one did. I couldn't tell you one thought I had about plot or character or pacing. I wasn't thinking about it. It never occurred to me to think about it. I just let the words happen to me.

I don't know how to review this book and I don't know who to recommend it to. I do know I will be buying a copy. I loved it.
