This book made me a mess. I'm warning you that if you do decide to pick this book up, just be prepared to be an emotional wreck right after, with a tissue box next to you & a blotchy face.
There is NO WAY, just absolutely ZERO chances you can get through this book WITHOUT crying. It is dark, emotional, and deep. I don't think I can ever move on from this book.
There's also something SO amazing about her writing I can connect with emotionally and she writes with such great empathy. The story, the message and the characters are so well ingrained in my brain and it all felt so raw... and real. This book is a masterpiece. I'm pissed that I don't see that many people talk about it. This is the type of book that should be sold on shelves, in everyone homes.
Beautiful piece of work. Lucinda berry did it again.
