I can’t sufficiently put into words how much I love this book. I had it in my TBR pile for about 2 years and kept putting it off, the blurb just felt uninspiring and I couldn’t get in the right headspace.

Now that I’ve finally read it it has broken my heart a dozen times. The writing is lyrical and beautiful but not overdone, and the characters felt like they became my own family. Don’t read this if you don’t like books that make you cry (literally sob).
