I was not expecting to like this book so much. I needed a small book for a reading challenge and I picked this one - I'm so glad I did it.
This is a very beautiful and sad story. I love Jessica's relationship with her grandfather, it's so warm and full of love. I could picture the grandfather in real life, I know a bunch of older people that are just like him. That moved my heart and made me love this story.
We know, since the beginning, how this story is going to end, but it's ok, because throughout the narrative we (just like Jessica) can make our peace with that.
This books was such a good surprise!
