2.5/5 after seeing everyone react to this book, I had to pick up it. Even tho it is huge, I decided to read it in 2023. 
Sadly, I wish I didn’t. And not because of what others said. Yes I agree this book is sad and you should definitely check TW before reading it. But it didn’t work on me. I was expecting more layers ? Something else ? 
I enjoyed the writing style, the friendship and the way Jude’s story is slowed told to us.
