This was beautiful. Heartbreakingly beautiful. I could not put this book down; I don’t think I’ve read more beautiful writing in my life. (I can’t come up with another word than beautiful because that’s what this book is lol) I think I need to go hike in the mountains, sleep on the ground, jump in a river. And just look at each day as a gift. This book will be with me forever
Graphic: Murder
Moderate: Death, Racial slurs, Sexism
Minor: Animal cruelty
This takes place in the 40s-70s on a farm, so there are instances of animals dying and kids being cruel to animals
