The way that mental illness was tackled and discussed in this book is so truly beautiful and raw that I felt like I was in Aiden’s mind myself. Within just the first 20 percent of the book I was already in near tears from how well Aiden’s feelings are portrayed. Especially after seeing Elijah for the first time after so long.
I also loved the glimpses of Elijah’s thoughts as well. Seeing a little bit of his struggles too as he tries to find closure so he can truly move on with his life only to get more and more questions.
This book made me think more about the power of faith and the impact it can have on someone in the darkest times of their life. And the monks in this book were some of the most amazing characters. I absolutely adored them.
