I didn't think I was going to like this at first - not really any fault of the writing, but it's very different from my usual genres and I found it a bit too straightforward and (at times) tell-not-show-y. But as soon as it switched to Evelyn's POV I was enraptured. I cried a whole bunch of times, fell in love with most of the characters, and I will be telling everyone I know to read this.
