So good - both completely endearing and utterly heartbreaking at times. I loved how worth, love, forgiveness and grace were threaded into Tristan’s and Isolde’s relationship as well as their families. I thought it was so well done - how growing up in abuse and believing in your own lack of worth changes how you treat others or interact with them, and forces you to self-protect. But when acceptance and forgiveness and just plain being seen is offered it can make such a difference. 

Also I absolutely adored Isolde thru the entire book. She’s my hero.
