5.0

This book is definitely in my top 10 books ever. It was so hard to read and at some points I really couldn’t read further. Even though I know it’s fiction, this story could be true and probably is a lived experience for many people. 
With that being said it’s also a beautiful and real depiction of friendship, love and chosen family.
