A lovely little parable to start the year! I thought the third act was a little bit predictable, but I didn't really mind because it was satisfying regardless. The prose was quick and easy to read, it didn't overstay its welcome.

This book was a rollercoaster of emotion.
It didn't take the classic approach of sad to happy ever after, but a wave of deep depression to mediocre to happy to contentment to an attitude of inspiration to continue life and appreciate all the possibilities without allowing the past to ruin life.
INCREDIBLE BOOK

This is the best book I have ever read. Absolutely spellbinding, everyone on the planet should read this book - a beautiful reflection of the human condition and driving force of life. A book of love, regret and the wonders of being alive.
