Mind Blown!
This book is beautifully written. So many details with such smoothness with each transition. Each changing scene isn't abrupt, but slow and well paced. I'm truly impressed. The pace doesn't change as I don't feel rushed into the end but like the writers took their time to truly tell the story.
It's like a more open-minded version of Eat, Pray, Love. Self discovery, internal happiness, and being one with nature truly stole parts of me. I couldn't stop reading. I wanted to be lost in the main character and everything they were going through. There's a lovely view of different sexualities that I can't say I've heard of but I do respect. The story is beautifully erotic with different takes on sex and love.
The ending. It was absolutely perfect. If you are given the chance to read this book, take it. Thank me later.

This book is beautifully written. So many details with such smoothness with each transition. Each changing scene isn't abrupt, but slow and well paced. I'm truly impressed. The pace doesn't change near the end, like a lot of writers feel the need to do. The writers took their time to truly tell the story.
