WOW

I recognise that many of my reviews have been starting similarly lately but I truly don’t think there is a better way to describe this book than the word wow.

I can’t fathom that this was written by two different authors because the way each chapter and each sentence flowed together felt so connected and beautifully entwined. This felt like poetry to me. I don’t think I have ever read anything like this and I’m not sure I ever will again.

Wow and beautiful will have to be the only words I can repeat when it comes to this book because I don’t want to give too much away but what I will say is that this is a perfect read and i highly recommend it to anyone who comes across this review.

Also, the fact that this is sapphic?

Wow. Beautiful.
