I loved this book! It was so moving, and I can only imagine that it must have been frustrating to write. I plan to look up if this was born through the Author's memory oh her Grandmother. The reason for it not getting 5/5 would be based solely on the ending - I think I didn't want it to end, and therefore found it was wrapped up too easily. For a debut novel it was so very well polished, and held my attention completely for the full duration. I look forward to reading more from this author.
