I had never heard of this book until I went into this little bookstore in the Denver airport while I waited to go back home to Florida. I walked around and read quite a few summaries of the books there, and then walked around again but something about this book kept pulling me back to it so I bought it and only this book did I buy. 

I… was NOT prepared for the utter SUSPENSE and the great emotional rollercoaster this book put me through. I won’t put any spoilers because honestly, it’s worth you reading it yourself and discovering it all. I’ve never noted down quotes and scenes of a book but I noted down a good amount from this one that either made my weak-to-shipping-canon-lovers heart cry or made goosebumps rise on my arms at the magnitude of meaning behind the words on the pages. 

I’m so glad I bought the second book knowing I was loving the first one so now I can just continue on with the story. I’m also going to look up more by this author because holy crap I love her ;-; Please read this book, it’s my first 5 star read of the year and it’s like my fourth book.
