I'm honestly at a loss for words. I have so many nixed feelings about the ending. It took me a while to finish the book. The writing is so easy to visualize. I'd give anything to see this turned into a movie. Amazing work, truly a wonder.

Was really well written, but felt slow. Redeemed by the fact that I still couldn’t put it down.
