Beautifully written, devastating throughout. The love made the devastation and honesty of the story come full circle. You feel the full spectrum of emotion in this book. Not my typical read but such a well written book. Preference is a little more hope and love intermingled, but this book was just as true and honest as anyone’s life really can be. The only thing making it less than a 5 is my preference for a little more lightheartedness in a book. So nothing really.
