This is certainly not a lightheaded read. Proceed with caution. 
In hindsight I probably picked the wrong time to read this book. However, in a weird way I enjoyed this immensely. 
A very heavy theme, but it was handled with such beauty and kindness. With wonderful character developments. Important life lessons and messages. One to really get you thinking on such a deep and spiritual level. 
So much love, sadness and grief wrapped up in one book and one that will stay with me for a very long time. Tj klune has done it again and I will forever be amazed by his attention to detail and wonderful way with words.
I know that he isn't to everyone's tastes. I'm not one to simply dismiss an authors work due to their personal views and opinions as this is something that we are all entitled to and whether we agree or disagree, this does not negate the fact that he really has a beautiful way with words and story telling.
