“We are all a little broken. We are a mosaic. We’re made up of all those we’ve met and all the things we’ve been through. There are parts of us that are colorful and dark and jagged and beautiful. And I love every piece of you. Even the ones you wish didn’t exist.”

What will come to your mind if you think about the seven wonders that existed in our world? How the broken pieces cracked it to love someone as a whole?

This is how this book about. You will find many sad-longing phrases to make it like spark of hope while you are looking at shooting stars. It's like a magicless glimpse into the nature of love, what it means to be unwell, and how to face the fractures of yourself and still love as it you are not broken. The story is soft-crack and safe, that immediately lead you to the home sweet home ambience as you wouldn't turn your page down. Yours truly comes as a warm gift in Christmas under snowflakes fall to the earth. 

Oh! Even if it’s sequel of another book (Part Of Your World, if I am not mistaken) I haven’t read it but I still can dig in the story along the way. :3
