Spoilers ahead-

I thought this was a great book and loved how deeply all the main characters were explored. After finishing, and honestly even while reading, I was struck by how Song was truly the worst while convincing himself he was a martyr all along. Like bro, if you haven't forgiven your wife for cheating, then just tell her !!!! Two wrongs don't make a right, and he justifies literally everything he does with "well Fan cheated on me a hundred years ago." Stfu!!!! 

I do also wish we learned more about Giulin, even heard her PoV a little bit. She was a fascinating character and in the end probably the most meaningful to all the MCs lives. 

This book ended up being different than I thought it would be going in- I was expecting a more emotional, sad read judging by the title, but it was a fun read actually.
