This book left me aching. I never wanted it to end. I smiled through so much of it, and I cried real tears more than once. The writing is unique but not annoying, and the story is tragically beautiful. The only complaint I have is that I didn’t read it earlier.

Brutal and sad but also warm and sweet, I really truly felt the love between the two main characters pouring out of the pages. The side characters, Esen especially, stole the show for me, I love her so much. Only complaint was the pacing was a little off, Really slow at the start and break neck at the end.
