This was so gorgeous! The writing was so gorgeous and lyrical and the audiobook is such a treat to listen to. The narrator speaks so beautifully and has a lovely singing voice for the songs (which she sings). The background audio and all around effects were a real treat for the ears, but overall I thought the story was just good. If I had read this and not listened to the audio version, I probably would have given it 3 stars.
