3.5

This could have been a 5⭐️ book for me, had it not been for the description. It’s a bait & switch and beneath the beautiful quality of this novel. It was unnecessary to mislead readers.  I strongly encourage readers to check trigger warnings for this book before reading it and know that they are not just part of the plot but actually form the whole novel. It’s a wonderful story. Just not exactly the story sold in the official plot summary.
