What a beautifully written book about a touching story. The start was a bit slow but I was invested in the characters and their friendship, which proved to be worth it towards the end of the book. Once I got to the 2017 section, I was hooked and needed to know what happened to Tully. The portrayal of Tully's struggles were raw and genuine, and I liked hearing Anna's point of view as well. Honestly surprised I didn't cry.
