This book… wow. I read this pretty much in one day, and I think it will always hold a special place in my heart. I’ve never felt so nervous for a character before, kind of anticipating what might happen next but not wanting it to happen.

I hate Reese with all of my soul. Him and his trilby can get in the bin. I want to give Amilie a big hug and shield her from the world. I love Alfie with all my heart😭 what a little Angel.
