I definitely hadn’t expected that ending or the twist but will say, if you’re prone to sobbing during books (like me) then definitely have some tissues handy cause it gets pretty emotional.

For this particular copy of the book, the author included some bonus content (Gat's poems and notes to Cadence, an original map and family tree, the process of writing this book, and a book club menu and reading guide) which helped expand some aspects of the book and allowed the readers to see kind of what the author wanted to do with this particular storyline.
