Rating: 5 out of 5

This book was not your typical teacher/student story. It was so much more than forbidden love. It was a story of loss and misunderstanding,of finding what really mattered and grabbing hold of it. It was a story of courage and growth. It was a beautiful story of healing after great loss. What else can I say. It touched a lot of emotional buttons. The death of a loved one is always heartbreaking. Sometimes it is from sickness, violence and at their own hands. The impact of all these are tragic and hard to process. All these were addressed in this book and the way the characters dealt with them is a big part of the story. The author did a great job of writing each and every emotion that the characters went through and how they dealt with the life after a loved ones death. As in real life, we can't begin to know how we will choose to recover. I loved that the author didn't make it all hearts and roses. That her characters matured through the whole process of grief and came out the better with the help of others. I recommend this book to others with a warning....have you tissue handy! So worth the read!
