i feel like the door took a little piece of me with it by the time i'd finished reading. what is there that i can even say? this book is distilled emotion and i was unprepared for it. despite the ominous (but beautiful) opening chapter, i was lulled into a false sense of comfort by whimsical emerence and her amusing idiosyncrasies. what i got by the end of the story was an emotional journey i hadn't bargained for. an absolute favorite. i need to read everything magda szabó's written, by like tomorrow.
