I would give this five million stars if I could. I devoured this book and I am so sad it’s over. This is one of those works of fiction where you truly see the world through another person’s eyes, and you’re left feeling like you’ve learned a little more about the world and the people in it. This was a heart wrenching, gut wrenching read but I adored every second. Best book I’ve read so far this year. Hall of fame for sure.
