Welp. The aaaangst. This book crushed my heart into a million tiny pieces and put it back together again. Did it at times feel a little overwritten? Did I mind? Not one bit. 

And if this has to be the end, maybe that's OK, because this is absolute and forever, no thoughts or words, just us, If love can see us now, it must be ashamed that it has nothing to offer.
