5.0

This was the book I needed. I'm not a maths expert - statistics gave me so much happiness but thats about it. But everything else about the string of thoughts in this novel felt simultaneously familiar, emotional, thoughtful, embarrassing, comforting, sad, reassuring, terrifying, beautiful... I can't really put words for how this one made me feel.

I've been trying to find a book that would make me cry, and this one did the trick.
