If You Come Softly by Jacqueline Woodson

4.0

This book just broke my heart and made me cry more than anything else I’ve read recently. It’s a beautifully crafted love story with a tragic ending, that echoes such relevance today. Jacqueline Woodson is a master of storytelling. 

I wish I would have read this originally in high school right after it came out — this is the kind of book I would have found so important and impactful.
