So beautifully sad. The writing was gorgeous. I do actually wish I could read this again for the first time. And what a tragic ending. 

I will say that you shouldn’t read this book if you’re even a little bit triggered by racism. Everyone owns slaves and the n word is mentioned almost once every other page.
