5.0

I loved this book. Beautiful, aching, and tragic yet hopeful despite it all. I could hardly put it down between the beautiful writing and the snippets of Franny's past that left me wanting to know more. My only complaint is
that the very end where her father shows up felt abrupt and tacked on
. But overall I thought this book was breathtaking. 

Editing to add that this book has made me extremely grateful for all the birds and other animals in the world, and has truly made me appreciate them when I see and hear them.
