This book surprised me! I thought it wouldn’t be that interesting but especially about 1/2 the way through, I had developed a connection with the characters that made me want to see what happened. This isn’t the most lyrical or poetic of books, which is what I usually like to read. I would also say that some of the chapter endings, which have a repetitive structure, aren’t as emotional as they might have been planned to be. Still, the plot is very interesting and each character is developed in a way that we can all relate to some parts of them and want better for them. It was sweet and I can’t wait to read the sequel ❤️
