I started reading this book knowing it would be sad. Although the ending is fairly predictable, reading it was extremely emotional. There are still a few good big plot twists that completely changed my outlook on parts throughout the whole book by the time they were revealed. 
The last few paragraphs of the final chapter had me needing to take breaks to take a breath and get a hold of myself to continue, they were so deeply emotional and a major conflict of feelings. 
Overall, incredible book. Only reason I give it slightly less than 5 stars is because I felt the first 1/3 ish to be a tad slower with lots of flashbacks and family history during a time I wanted to know more about the current timeline story.
