Reviews

[Bree · Rating 5 out of 5]

If I had to pick a word for this book I would pick.. emotional. Not in a bad way at all but in only 136 pages this book made me cry twice in the first 39. I would definitely recommend this book and it's short yes, but it's a quick read that I feel could get you out of a reading slump. I would say the book didn't feel nearly as fast paced as you would think for only 136 pages, and the writing is easy to read and understand. 5 stars, if you're thinking about reading this book please do.
