I did like the way the ending was written, it felt like it had had a bit more care put into it than the rest of the book, and it did make me tear up a little
Overall, I feel like this book could have been really great, it just needed a couple more rounds of editing. I'm interested in seeing where this author is in a couple years and maybe I'll pick up another one of his books then.
