I just can't believe how so much happened in this book. This story had so much pain going on that I had to stop reading it for a full three days before I could pick it back up. I still love Louisa Clark, but because of things ended in the first place you can see why she had such a hard time moving on in her life. Nothing was right in the world after Will. How relateable her story was amazing. This story perfectly captures the essence of how difficult it is to move on when you love someone as much as Louisa loved Will. You can see how some people may not find the will to live again and become the way they do. Will was a wonderful man, but you can't help but hate him a little when you see the devastation he left behind.

I love how Louisa was still the determined woman she always was but guarded because of her loss. Her determination to help those she felt connected and loved was what made Louisa such a wonderful person. The story was harsh in it's truth and reality and yet uplifting in a small degree in the end. You just can't help but wish Louisa well and want the best for her. I loved this book, but make sure when you start that you understand that this book isn't hearts and flowers, but truth and heartache. Have a box of tissue and remember that in the end all turns out well.
