This book was beautiful. 5 star read until the ending. It was so disappointing. There was not enough of Autumn & Finny to the point that it feels so useless to have read this beautiful book and have it come so abruptly to an end. I can see the beauty in thinking of real life and how sometimes things end before we are ready but the end was so abrupt. There wasn’t even enough about Autumn after to feel like the story was complete.
