This was a beautiful story told in letters from Violeta to her grandson. Her story is book ended by two pandemics, but they play a very small role in the story. The novel was beautifully written with fleshed out characters and vivid descriptions. However, I felt a slight disconnect from the characters and the book was a bit drawn out at the end. 

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
