5.0

This fundamentally changed something in me, and rereading it a year later I’m even more devastated than I was before. Hanya Yanigahara writes these characters and their story so deeply that you feel like you know them, and I feel like I lost them too. Although it’s an incredibly heartbreaking story it’s filled with so much love, friendship, hope and bravery, and I will love this book till the day I die.
