5.0

I did not expect to fall in love with this book the way I did. Sometimes its passages were like a whisper or a caress and sometimes they were like a sucker punch but they were always intensely evocative. The story knitted itself from fragments of the past and the present, the way our lives and histories are formed from the moments that linger and inform one another and make us who we become.
