First of all. What a beautiful cover this book have! And after finishing with it, even more so. 
 What a confusing, heartbreaking and touching story. Now I know what all the fuss was about! I expected tears while reading this, I am a cry baby after all, but it moved me in a different way. I was anxious, frustrated, desperate, so sad I stopped a couple of times but not to cry, it was more to...breathe, to look around, see my kiddos and to ground myself before I could read again. I was telling my husband that sometimes you feel so sad but the tears won't come out. I'm familiar with that feeling, this book made me feel like that. So incredibly sad I couldn't cry. For some I sound crazy. A contradiction. Others will think "Ah! I know that feeling! " Anyways, not everything was dark, theres was light too, a few cute and funny scenes too, thanks to Max and Lachlan, those...two... were so...perfect. Lana and Naomi? I love and pity them. That's all I'll say about them. 
 The only reason I didn't gave this 5 stars, is that after all my suffering, greedy me, needed more at the end. Still, a must read.
