My favorite book of all time by a long shot - I have never written a review until now because I wasn’t sure how to sum up all this gorgeous perfection in a few sentences. So, all I’ll say is I crave a reread of this book like a blanket in the freezing cold, and my love of this book is so insane I have been caught rereading quotes when all I want to do is cry (and read this book apparently, which definitely adds to the whole crying thing). Certain songs and long drives shoot me back to these characters with unreal immersion and I almost feel bad recommending it because unfortunately you’ll never think about anything else ever again (sorry). But despite this, you must read this book because Shana Youngdahl is a genius and she has created a masterpiece that you would be foolish not to witness.
