I really enjoyed this book, though it’s a very sad read. I found it incredibly engrossing (I read most of it on a plane, so that helped) and I just wanted to stay in the story and keep going. The perspectives were fascinating in what they did and didn’t show, and the overlapping timelines. Overall I thought it was lovely and I’ll be thinking a lot about it.
