This is a really beautiful story about the ties that bind us and bring us together. We are all interconnected, and whether or not we know it, we can have an impact on other people.

This was a quick and easy read, but it was deep and meaningful. It gave me a lot of insight into what it means to be an immigrant, especially the child of one, and feel like both and insider and outsider.

I wish it had a traditional happy ending, but in some ways it still was a happy ending. They made an impact on each other’s lives. Both Natasha and Daniel were changed by the day they spent together. And who knows where the epilogue takes them. Maybe they do live happily every after in the way I hope.

I loved this book. I expected a sweet romance, but it was much more than that. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm not sure this could be made into a decent film since so much of the book is the character's thoughts and explanations for the people in their lives.
