The author did something remarkable with this story. It’s a book so full of misery, pain and tragedy who gives a sense of hope and comfort by themes like friendship, ambition, love, family. The beautiful writing and the exploration of those themes affects me unlike anything else i’ve read. I knew it would be hard to read, but I didn’t knew how much I would suffer by the fact that you can do everything to help someone,  love isn’t the magical solution to end suffering. 9.5/10 (not 10 because it was really long at first, and it’s a difficult book so I’m not feeling well to give a 10/10).
