This book is underrated I have read it and watched the adaptation and it did not fail me for once.What are we after all,but bodies seeking for their missed parts? A question I have seen its answer through the book,glad that I have seen the movie to show more of what a hand is capable to do.but a hand needs an other to feel something. A moment,your trajectory can be changed through a leap of faith, everything would make sense. A story about lost and found,fate and love.And when you lose part of you,its only a chance to change your path....
