I have to start by saying that I love the beautiful way that this book is written. The detail of emotions, people and places really captured my heart.

The characters are all so interesting and most of them are so easy to fall in love with. For me, though I think there's a little too many of them.

I also wasn't a huge fan of the way non-linear time line. I feel like it'd really benefit from chapter titles to say when or where that chapter takes place. As it is now, I found it a little confusing trying to fit the pieces together of what happened and when.

I feel like José Daniel Alvior created a beautiful but melancholy atmosphere throughout this book. The sense of how things are temporary and that even when you find someone you love deeply, life is still complicated and busy and far from perfect.

Overall, I'd say this is great if you're looking for a short read and maybe a little cry.
