This book is, at it's heart, incredibly romantic. It showcases the excitement and all-consuming nature of first love and the tragic consequences that come along with it when it ends. It is an interesting look at how class, gender and race intertwine and affect how we live our lives. The twist in the tale is not really a twist - all of the signs are there and you'll see it coming from a mile off.
This is a lovely book for those who are hopeless romantics at heart.

Not exactly a bad book- It definitely kept my interest. But the characters where mainly unlikeable (and creepy at times although I don’t think Francois was supposed to be) and the end was predictable yet unbelievable (if that’s possible).
