I knew this was going to be beautiful from the first couple of pages. I didn't know how beautiful. This is sci-fi at its best. People driven, complex, wonderful, heartwarming and comfortable like the book version of sharing a wonderful meal and a glass with people you love. Also, I cried. I cried, curled under the covers in the couch holding my kindle to my chest like a baby. READ. THIS. BOOK.

That's a 3.5 but hey! extra half star for making me tear up a little bit there
(No but seriously it was a little bit sweet and dear and lovely and it fits really well with my great HP reread.)
