Wow. Kristin Hannah needs all the awards. I LOVED this book. So much. It’s absolutely heart-wrenching (I cried multiple times, especially during the last 100 pages), and HEAVY— definitely NOT a lighthearted book. But the story was just... so good. Leni and Cora remind me so much of me and my mom, so it made it even more emotional for me. I also loved all of the side characters— especially Matthew, Large Marge, & Tom. *Almost* everyone was SO lovable.

Go read this. Now.
