Third book in the series and it made me hopeful, then broke my heart, made me tear up, then made me hopeful and broke my heart again. I loved every single book in the series and was looking forward for this one too. Some stories became a lil bit repetitive and it was easy to guess the ending, but I loved the book nonetheless !

Livre charmant ! Nous suivons de nombreux personnes et leurs points de vue. Je conseille de ne pas forcément lire tout d'un coup mais de lire chaque "histoire" (chapitre) de manière sporadique. En effet, les histoires sont un peu répétitives.
Effet "Feel good" garanti !
