This is a beautiful read that had me hypnotized from the beginning. Each of the four stories pulled at my heart strings, particularly the last one where I ugly cried to the end! I love the underlying message of accepting the past and valuing relationships, it really is relatable. I usually enjoy a happy ending but it somehow wouldn't have been appropriate, the end was perfectly emotional. This book is definitely up there as one of my favourite books of all time.
