5.0

This book is spectacularly written and the characters are rich, complex, and beautiful. Gail Honeyman did a masterful job in exploring the themes/emotions of loneliness, depression, friendship, suffering, grief, love, and healing. This is singularly the best book I've read this year and I can't recommend it enough. It is beautiful, challenging, inspiring, and uplifting.
