I absolutely loved this book!
I'm still left wondering how much my enjoyment was having it read to me via Audible; what a great job George Newbern did as the narrator! While I thoroughly enjoyed listening, I'm mildly torn not to have been able to hold the book to my chest while sobbing when I came to the end.
