“Must be nice. To be able to be weak. I wouldn’t know.” 
This book managed to pleasantly surprise me and disappoint me at the same time. TJR is such a good writer, I had goosebumps many times while reading, simply from individual sentences. But that's the thing - I feel like the writing was so dramatic that I came to expect something quite different from the story. The story itself is lovely and - just like Daisy Jones and Evelyn Hugo - so real, but I couldn't help but want something more. But it was such a good read anyway!
