I liked the descriptions and vibes in this book and the subject touched upon were very interesting. The reason I didn't put a 5 stars is very personal, I think that I felt very nervous of opening the book again when i stopped reading because, all the negativity and mess in the house made me feel deeply uncomfortable and stressed. In a way it's sign that the book is good if it transfers emotions like that too me. Even if I do like sad books, this just made me stressed to be honest.
