Review:
I don't know what it was about this story, but it just kind of caught me off guard. It's been a while since I've been this enamoured with a book.
This is basically a fairytale and it's message is simple and complicated and beautiful all at the same time. It feels magical and charming, sad and joyful, and overall very moving. It's a story of friendship and humanity, but also the darker sides of life. It's told in a gorgeous and wonderful way.
It's one of those books where I don't want to go into detail of what parts I loved because I think there's real joy in discovering for yourself. It's a little gem of a story and I'd highly recommend it to everyone.
