Beautiful. Heart wrenching. Capable of explaining grief where any heart could understand. I could read this many times over.

Well, I should have alot of words to say about this book because it was literally all about words. I loved the characters, their struggle and their fight. I did not however enjoy all the information overload and etymology of everything. Getting to chapter 19 was gruesome. But the end earned it's wage! I would have loved to find out some events that followed the last chapter for some closure.

I will forever be drawn to survivors who escape and rebuild. I felt everything Mia felt. The characters are very well built, and the suspense was jam packed.
