Wow.

This is one of those stories that is going to stay with you for the rest of time. It was so difficult to read because every page read was one page closer to the story being over-- and that was heartbreaking to me. My heart ached like Louisa's and I was terrified of the end. But the journey was full of heartbreaking beauty. 

Thank you NetGalley and Atria Books for an ebook advance reader copy in exchange for a fair and honest review.
