this book was perfect in every element possible!!! i was not expecting to love this book as much as i did, and friends, just wait till you get your hands on this book because you’ll absolutely fall in LOVE with it!!!

okay, also an important note. i saw another review for this book talking about how she felt like this was written just for her. and i couldn’t agree more!! while i was reading this my heart was quite literally filled, and i did NOT want it to end!! the talk of book and writing, poetry and family. it was beautiful!!

i loved this book so much that at the end i almost cried just for the fact that it was over:)
