(It's currently 1am while I'm writing this, and I've been reading this book for the past 3 hours straight. I'm already not great at writing reviews and also I'm a bit of an emotional wreck so this is less of a review and more of just a random spewing of half-formed thoughts! Yay, let's go! 😅)
CW: This book contains quite a few possible triggers, but the majority of them are in the second half.
The first half of this book was beautiful, it was- for the most part, happy, sweet, and about family.
The second half was just as beautifully written but dealt with some more triggering topics. The entirety of the second half of the book just was constantly breaking my heart, repairing it a bit, and then breaking it again. That's not to say I don't recommend this book, I absolutely loved it, it's just a bit more of an emotional read.
