pickThis evening I read this in one sitting which I‘ve never done before. This is such a moving story that even brought a tear to my eye. I have so many theories floating through my head as to why she decided to live the way she did. Definitely recommend as a quick read. Finished it in 1 hour 20 minutes.
I gave this book 4 stars ✨
