Oh boy, this book was..... I don't even know. It was beautifully written, and literally had me tearing up after almost every chapter. I cried about mid-way through, and THAT ENDING made me cry almost as much as I did while reading the epilogue in Clockwork Princess, which is saying something, because I was sobbing after the epilogue in that book. *shudders* the memories are resurfacing

Julie annoyed me at times, but I get it, becau ...more

This book was amazing! I cried way too many times during this. The way Julie was going through all these different stages of grief was really interesting but so sad at the same time. I will definitely re read this book in the near future.

<3 5 stars for sure

Overall… eh.

Great lines, choppy writing; sad premise, mediocre execution.

I loved this whole book. The pace was good, it was just the right amount of sad, and the characters were amazing. Sam instantly stole my heart. But my favorite character was Mika. She was so sweet and loving.

The only character that seemed a little flat was Julie herself. The book start ...more
