4.5

 I knew after a couple of chapters that it was going to be a punch in the gut and I wasn't mistaken. A continuous, painful punch; it just kept coming. Nonetheless, it was the most beautiful read of the year so far. The different narrator voices were extremely well developed and characterized, just like the 50s seaside setting. Would recommend it to anyone.
