I. . . can't stop thinking about this book. The weight it has left in my chest. The familiarity of some of a particular theme the main character struggles with throughout and what it causes just — the sorrow it makes me feel. I can't even accurately put it into words. Sad doesn't feel strong enough. I'm devastated. But I still loved this book so much. It was beautiful and magical and wonderful and the narration was flawless. I have yet to be disappointed by the books in this series and the wonder I always feel listening to the flow of the words - so beautifully written and read.
