The writing was beautiful. Each page you can find more than one sentence that really strikes you.
There were times where I genuinely felt myself getting sick when reading the things she was feeling or going through.
I found the storytelling to be really immersive. At times I did not find the sex scenes to be appealing, but I suppose it did coincide with the plot to show us the bonds in which they shared.
I think the book could have ended without the “An Encore of Roses” but that is merely my opinion. I guess it can appeal to those that want to see our main characters living a better life.
