Kyle My eyes are rubbed raw. I lost count of how many times I sobbed in the last 100 pages.

Claudia Piepenburg You cried because it's such a piece of drivel, or as one negative reviewer wrote a "dreck", right?

Sounds like someone needs a hug.

Greg Victoria, I'm sure I cried that much during and after the book. Had to stop reading on many occasions and just sob. But ultimately, this piece of art is one of the most beautiful ever.

Adalee Gellar I think this book broke me a little inside. So beautiful but so painful.

Caia_In_Wonderland Probably the best book I’ve ever read. I cried so much. For days I can’t stop thinking of it.
