I don’t even know what to say right now—I think I bawled through the last 10 chapters. This book was so beautiful. It was a love story, not only between Clementine and Iwan across time, but between Clementine and her aunt. Although the book started a little slow for me, it ended up being a 5-star read because the writing, the characters, the tale, were all so engaging. And even though I caught on to context cues and was able to predict some of the storyline and character relations, it didn’t ruin the story for me. I know I will be thinking about this book for days and even weeks later. Loved it! P.S. There is some heavy mental health content (and that part was actually very healing for me), so read with care.
Graphic: Grief
Moderate: Death, Mental illness, and Suicide
