I absolutely COULD NOT put this book down at any point. It was INCREDIBLE. I wish I had some well-thought out review to write, but I just finished this book like five minutes ago and I’m still questioning everything I thought I knew to be true. I seriously don’t think I can say anything other than “WOW,” because this book was has me so shook, I am speechless.

I wanted to love this book. I really did. I wanted it to be beautiful and deep and make me cry my eyes out. It seemed so promising, but man, did it fall short. The plot was so scattered, none of it seemed to come together for me. I kept waiting for the story to get emotional and deep at some point, and it just didn’t. There was about two pages towards the end where it talked about “coming to terms with the past,” but it was just glossed over and never really addressed again. And then the strange ending...I don’t know, man. The illustrations were really nice, though. I just wish the story could have been just as good.
