Review: I have been holding off on this review for a while now. I didn't know how to put this book into words. So I think that I finally found the words that I needed. Motivational. Inspiring. Romantic. Moving. Etc. But I can definitely agree that this was a tear jerker. I definitely ugly cried. Here and there. Tillie knows how to put romance and a heart felt story together.
Here lies the death of my heart. I think I cried a good majority of this book. So thanks, Tillie. I have Kim Kardashian crying face and I'm in public while I try to get through this book.
I was expecting a bad book. I am not going to lie. Not only was I pleasantly surprised at how well Tillie can make someone cry, but she also can bring joy into the depths of someone's black heart.
I swooned for Rune. Oh hey, that rhymes. Clever me.
The book progresses as they grow up. Their characters develop their complexities and then boom, you're hit in the face with the truth. Would you believe I cried again? THANKS.
Now without any spoilers, I can say that if you're looking for a not to graphic romance novel that will tear your heart to pieces, this is definitely the book for you. I'm leaving now with a rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars.
Blog you later, awesome book nerds.
