4.0

I first tried reading this book about a year ago, and couldn’t get past the second chapter. This time around, I was able to really enjoy the poetic writing style and characters. The pages are short, so you can read it quickly, but it is not an easy read by any means. Each sentence was written carefully and adds depth to the story, so it requires careful reading.
