Complicated
I found this hard to get into for the first half, but the second half really pulled me in. Some of the twists at the end really surprised me which I appreciate. I did cry upon finishing it, the ending is a heart jerker for sure. Overall I would say that this was a good read and I enjoyed it but it isn’t on my list of must reads.
