Do you ever read something that draws all the breath from your lungs and leaves you gasping for more than just air?

Emotional? I cried every other sentence. E.M Forster weaves into this book a message that says "you're not wrong, you're not broken, it's okay to be the way you are, you deserve happiness."

Written in 1913, and it has a happy ending. IT HAS A HAPPY ENDING. No one dies, and the main character gets to live with his boyfriend forever.
