Oh my god. Oh. My. God. 
I absolutely adore this book. The pacing is a bit weird and the story felt like it wasn’t developing during some parts. But at the same time it was constantly developing and everything made sense. I was a bit worried about how this was going to end but the ending was beautiful. I rarely cry over books but this one made me teary eyed. Wow. Just wow.
