A beautifully written book! I love when the writing is accessible and "no-frills" and yet so evocative. Certain parts of the book didn't have the emotional impact I was expecting, given my feelings when I started, but maybe that was down to me hurrying to finish it for movie night with my sister? Unclear! Given the journey I was taken on here, I can't get over how short this book is!

Update: If you can watch the movie not long after - I watched it that very night on the same day I finished it - it really adds to the whole experience of this work!
