I was left speechless, I finished the book and just sat there for about 10 minutes, huge smile on my face, not wanting to move on from this masterpiece just yet. The rich plot and scenery, the amazing characters just begging you to fall in love with them, the beautiful writing, the hope and the tragedy. And that plot twist that came about 60% of the way through - wow! I bawled my eyes out several times throughout this book but laughed and cheered the characters on just as much! I would recommend this book to anyone!
