Brutally sad, but gorgeously hopeful. This book has made it on my top favorites of the year. Holly Ringland's writing style is sweeping, descriptive, precise, and beautiful. I can't remember the last time I was so enthralled by a writer's use of language. The way she conveys emotion will tear your heart out.
