** spoiler alert ** 
 If I could give 6 stars to this book I would! It was an absolutely heart-wrenchingly beautiful story. Many other books have made me cry but this one struck me like no other. 
 I've finished reading this book thinking how much Kate's positivity in life is something many more people could take something from. Life really is too short. 
 I loved Bright Side and Gus's friendship. There is something really special there... I also loved how Katie let Keller into her life and trusted each other and made the most of the time they were able to spend together... 
 The love, the friendships, the happiness, the sadness, the tears and not forgetting the music, made this a superb read for me! Even if I did get though an entire box of tissues and had to stop reading a couple of times just to take a breather!
