I started reading this book last year and put it down because I couldn't get into it. I am also not drawn to magical realism. However my mom and a good book friend encouraged me to pick it up again. Once I got through the initial few chapter, I started to enjoy it more. It has a sweet storyline and of course I was curious about the book theme. I found it a bit far fetched at times, but that's a fairy tale. Overall, I am glad I stick with it.
Graphic: Suicide attempt
Moderate: Death, Grief, and Death of parent
