This book is amazing and lives up to the hype. The atmosphere and the story are both beautiful. The characters are so well developed, all characters included the prevalent side characters which you don't see often in books. The writing is amazing. Her use of adjectives and description is amazing. Everyone should take notes. I don't know much about the original story but this is amazing. I will say though some parts of the ending I was like do we really need this? and some parts of the story kinda got me drifting off but that is so over looked in how amazing this book is and the LGBTQ Representation, amazing. Everything is amazing. Read this book. Anyone should read this book.
