5.0

This book was: impressive, excellent, traumatic (OH YES), heartwarming and yet so many adjectives to add.
 

It destroyed and comforted me at the same time. I've felt more emotions than I feel in a daily basis. 

My fav quote is a classic one, but for a good reason so i'm just going to write it: «And so I try to be kind to everything ! see, and in everything I see, I see him.» by Harold <3

I love you: Jude, Willem, Ana, Harold, Andy, Malcolm & Julia!
