This is not even a coherent review so don't expect it to be. It's just a spilling of my guts, I apologize. Please read this book. I can't even say how happy I am that I finally purchased a copy of this book. I've seen it around the YA community and just assumed it would be another contemporary YA book, nothing wrong with that. But no, this book is beautiful, absolutely incredible. Not only is the prose-like writing style enchanting, the story itself is seriously breathtaking. I want to lay down on the fluffiest comforter in a field and cry and laugh and clutch this book to my chest. I want to own every copy ever printed and simultaneously I want to give a copy to everyone I see and urge them to read it ASAP. I cried on and off through Part 1 and just when I thought it couldn't get better, here comes Part 2. Oh. The emotions in Part 2. I sobbed constantly until the end, and even after that. My glasses fogged up and I couldn't see from crying so hard. There were multiple time I had to lay the book down and just cry for a few minutes until I could pull myself together enough to continue without ripping my own heart out. Overwhelming grief and love felt through words typed on paper. ???? I have no real words right now. I already want to read it again. And again and again, like Lennie did with Wuthering Heights.

In summation, if you haven't, read this book please.
