Absolutely loved every minute. This book is so much funnier than I was anticipating. The monastery scene actually made me cry because I was laughing so much, it was incredible. Now, that’s not to say that this book isn’t also quite tragic. There is a lot of layered pain to navigate for all involved. But it’s a brilliant journey, and I plan to read it again one day when it isn’t so fresh on my mind. Highly, highly recommend.
