5.0

I’ll admit that this started a little slow, but I promise it more than made up for that in the last half. I haven’t read a 5-star read in so long I was starting to get into a reading rut. Hopefully, not anymore. This story was absolutely heartbreaking and beautiful all at once. It hits a little too close to home and I think because of this, I was able to feel all kinds of emotions for each and every character. I loved and hated it. This is definitely one of my top favorites of the year. Would 100% recommend it!
