SO GOOD! The moral dilemma really captivated my attention… it was one of those that really got me thinking about what I would even do if I were in any one of the characters’ shoes, but remained utterly conflicted about it because there was never really a good answer or solution.

The nature descriptions were a delight, as well as any interaction between Lucy and other characters. So adorable. 

All of it was really just… so heart-wrenching. And yet somehow, the conclusion turned out to be satisfying.

Highly recommend this one!
