4.0

This was a beautiful story full of self discovery, community, and kindness. Each of our four main characters went on their own journey that intertwined with one another along the way. The end result was a heartwarming (and sometimes heart-wrenching) story that you’ll think about again and again. I enjoyed getting to know all four leads through their individual POVs and they were written in a way that really made you root for them. Overall, I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a shorter book that will stay with you.
