One of the best books I’ve ever read. Truly. It‘s so engaging and surprised me in more ways than one. The character development is astounding. I cared SO much SO early on. Seriously phenomenal. I could have read about Evelyn Hugo for a thousand more pages.

There's so much I could say about this book, but I'll just encourage y'all to experience it for yourselves. It's a magical story that is somehow both heartwarming and heartbreaking, and its characters will stick with me for a long time. ...more
