At first I was reading this book and was like "what am I doing?" I did not like it. It was slow moving and boring, however I pushed through. I was glad I did, as the ending approached I found myself moved to tears a few times. It ended up being a really beautiful story and moved me. I gave it three stars because although the ending was wonderful, getting to it was not easy.
