such a beautiful book with such a beautiful love story. I recommend for anyone who loves art, Van Gogh, or The 1 and All Too Well by Taylor Swift. Very fun and interesting to annotate and lots of references to past chapters. If you’re thinking of reading Call me by your name read this instead there’s no gross age gap or fetishized feel !

this is exactly the kind of story i usually adore, but for some reason it just didn't click with me this time. i blame my reading slump. the 2nd half was way more engaging than the 1st one tho

This is exactly my kind book. Tin Man is a quiet story that is character driven and incredibly moving. It covers a lot of big topics like love, loss, grief, and identity in such a beautiful way and left me with an ache in my chest.
