I AM SO SAD!

I LITERALLY HAD MY HEART TORN OUT OF MY CHEST AND CRAMMED BACK IN. OVER. AND OVER. AND OVER. AGAIN.

WHY COULDN’T AUGUST JUST HAVE A NICE ENDING, HUH? WHY COULDN’T THE BOY HAVE SOME REST?? GIVE HIM A BREAK! AND THE ENDING WITH ISLA AND KATE??! I HATE THIS! I LOVE THE BOOK BUT I HATE THE ENDING BECAUSE HE’S NOW EMOTIONALLY ALONE. THE TWO PEOPLE WHO TRULY KNEW AND UNDERSTOOD HIM ARE NO LONGER BY HIS SIDE AND I AM RIOTING! JUSTICE FOR AUGUST!!!
