4.0

Short but powerful book that follows Annie, the girl Eddie saved in the first book. It was heartbreaking at times and altogether bittersweet as we learned with Annie what “mistakes” mean and how we are connected to others and across lifespans. Bad note: I am now afraid of hot air balloons.

A great follow up for its predecessor, I loved the connections but the original will always be held tightly to my heart. Maybe time has fogged my memory but there were more mentions of god, which is fine I just have varying views. It was beautiful though, pairing the storyline’s and the connections. Someone did say trauma porn in the reviews here and I kinda agree.

This struck me as very true. An amazing sequel that *also* ripped up my heart and sewed it back together a little kinder, with more understanding of life, eternity, and divinity.
