My heart is in tatters, this book is so so beautiful. Sure way to break my heart: mother-daughter dynamic.

Ahhh the book is growing on me. I had forgotten what it felt to read something simple, for my own pleasure, something that wouldn’t fill my head with theories and far fetched connections to archaic literature, something that gives true pleasure to the senses upon the very first reading. I am enjoying this adventure very much. What a beautiful, albeit a slightly fast paced narrative. Enthralling. Enchanting.
