This book hurts. It hurt me so much. I adored it.

Slow to start but it does pick up pace and I found myself unable to put it down, finally finishing it at 2am. 

It's raw and heartfelt and sad and tragic. 

If you love stories based on familial bonds, on tackling environmental issues and discovering one's purpose in life - this book is for you. But prepare your heart to break.
