This story was an absolute tear-jerker and I was crying in multiple sections of the book. Though built like an Amazon woman, Lizzy was absolutely beautiful on the inside and her ability to give love was enormous. Her grandma who raised her was a great influence on her character - giving, generous and loving. They helped in soup kitchens and welcomed ostracized characters into their home. One example was Lizzy’s best friend Riley. They gave him a home when his parents turned against him when they found he was gay. Lizzy was in love with Dylan who suffered from extreme abuse at home and she gave him unconditional love and nursed him whenever he came to her physically broken. But he was also a source of her heartache, drifting into her life every few years and his presence was not permanent.  It was so sad to see such a wonderful woman with so much capacity to give love but was also plagued with loneliness as those she loved left or abandoned her.
