More than a story about love and loss, this is a story about emotions, how to deal with them and how to accept the things that life throws our way. This book is a brilliant journey through grief, self discovering and love.
Just to point out a few negatives (and why this wasn't a 'five star' book): I think this book was unnecessarily long (too descriptive about things that don't matter to the plot) and sad (there is not a single happy couple throughout the book, and practically 99% of the stories are about people who betrayed each other).
