i am holding this book so gently in my hands!!!! it's so beautiful and warm and lovely......like i cannot stop thinking about miel and sam they're so. like that's LOVE! that one line about how sam loves the way miel is so desperate to eat her own name and the fact that his name never truly belonged to him..........i just. yeah. this book smells like sunset and tastes like sleeping in a flowerbed. you know?
