Wow I’m still kind of reeling so my rating may change a little once I’ve processed it but it was okay. It was good but I didn’t think it was life changing. The ending felt a little sudden but that seemed intentional. I didn’t love the characters or really the plot but I still must say that it was pretty good. It was also a super quick read. Some pretty heavy topics are covered so make sure to read the content warnings!!

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.

This book was genuinely a masterpiece. I would say it was more of a slower book but the emotion and storyline was amazing.

The way that finny (phineas) was portrayed and made into such a loving caring character was the most heartwarming effect of the story.
