So sad, but also so beautiful. I don’t know what to make of it all… the story or the ending. The first book was so hard for me — Elle seemed so cold, and then her story unfolded reminding me, as the best books do, that there is always more to a person’s story than what initially meets the eye. I’m glad I continued reading when I was thinking of putting it down.
