It was a great ride, I loved it. Peaceful, very interesting and immersive. Kya was a unique character and very inspiring. I adored the writing of the author. Every little aspect of the storyline unfolding slowly. The jump from the past to the future was so well done. She kept the past as interesting as the murder trial going on later in Kya’s life. I enjoyed every moment:)
