My second reading, this time via audio book and let me just say it doesn't get any easier. My heart is still just as shredded as the first time, maybe even more so due to the exquisite narration by Robinne.

First Read 2018
I received this book as a gift in a book club exchange and read it in preparation for attending Book Bonanza later this month. I really enjoyed this read and thought it was beautifully written.
