This book is compelling and beautifully written with a satisfying ending. It has many sad and difficult elements but is ultimately hopeful. Self reliance is a recurring theme throughout the book. There were a few threads I wish were resolved or fleshed out just a bit further but overall I really enjoyed this book.
