Dammit, this book wasn't meant to get to me. I don't like twee and quaint, and I certainly could have done with this book being half as long. But then, we got to the end, the inevitable end that's easy to see from the first sentence, and it still got to me. I found myself touched and charmed and okay, yes, I had a lot of feelings swelling inside of me.

Its fine, im fine, ill just just be scooping my heart up off the floor for the next 6 months while wishing to be immersed in this book forever.

All I can really say is don’t read any reviews. Maybe skim the basic gist of the plot from the summary and then dive in.

I fully anticipated disliking this solely because of its overwhelming popularity, as I tend to disagree with the masses in some genres.

Alas. This became my latest 5 star read 💜

Wonderful, light-hearted book that has wonderful lessons! Great book for anyone to read! It sheds a light on how we can change people’s biases and prejudices. Definitely worth reading if you’re looking for a sweet, uplifting book!
