kaylagraceful 's review for:

If You Come Softly by Jacqueline Woodson

4.0

---

I read this book for the first read as a part of Life's Library, a book club/subscription services created by John Green and Rosianna Halse Rojas. I haven't picked up a YA Novel in a while, so I was excited to see this book delivered to my house. I thoroughly enjoyed Woodson's narrative style and chewed through this book in just a few days. It was uplifting and heartbreaking all at once, and reminded me what it felt like to be young and in love. My only critique would be that I felt the ending was a little rushed, one or two more short chapters would have been nice.
