it would be a disservice to this book to give it anything less than 5 stars. a poetic masterpiece full of introspection and bittersweet memories. i feel that this book greatly encapsulates the meaning of life, detailing both joy and tragedy in the most poetic ways possible. while there were a few times i was slightly bored, it doesn’t matter to me because this book was life changing. i will be thinking about it for a long while. i loved it beyond words.
