“You are worthy of love. You are worthy to feel joy right now, even in the darkness”

The way this book has me in a chokehold 😭 This book masterfully balances contradicting themes through out:

Peace in war times 
Life in times of death
Joy in darkness
Comfort in times of sorrow

And all woven into Roman and Iris’ deep connection. From their playful rivalry to their inevitable love for one another. 

Just beautiful. This one will sit with me for a long time.
