I think it was long for a good reason. I hated the ending in a good and bad way. It just left me empty. But reminding me the time we have in earth is too short to not keep our loved ones close and let them know we love them.

The first 2/3 of this book were mediocre. The pace was slow. But, it was not too boring. Then the final 1/3 of the book changed everything. There were surprises and sadness and plot twists. I recommend this book, but if you get bored at first…please please finish it cause the ending is insane!
