5 stars This book is absolutely amazing.At some point I have watched the movie version, but enough time has passed that I don’t really remember much of it. But this book blew me away.The amount of thought placed behind each word is phenomenal, especially considering the multiple flashbacks and shifting time periods.Since the story was…
