Things We Didn't Say by Amy Lynn Green

Magnificent!
I truly don't feel that anything I write will do this novel justice, so I'll just start there. Any concerns I had about the epistolary style were gone within the first few pages. Johanna intrigued me in the prologue, and after the first few letters I loved her, flaws and all. Very little of her story went the way I imagined it would, and I always love that. I would have like to see an epilogue months or a couple years down the road, but given the uncertainty of the times, I think the end was fitting. I suppose I just didn't want it to end. This was definitely one of the best books I've read this year, and has been added to the list of library books I've borrowed and now have to buy.
