Holy. Shit. This book has utterly undone me. I sat staring in front of me, jaw to the floor for—not exaggerating—a half an hour when I finished this. I sobbed SO much. I don’t even have the words to explain how I feel. There is so much to say about this book and how beautifully done it was, but I don’t think I’m smart enough to articulate it. Oh my god.
