We meet Ella and Quinn through dual POVs with the discussion of deeply emotional issues.  Hope was the underlying epicenter for me throughout this read.  With topics of grief, guilt, worthlessness, and loneliness as much of the focus, I couldn't help but cling to the hope.  Ella and Quinn reached me on an emotional level and their passion and tension was an added bonus.  I was hoping they'd make their "discovery" sooner than when it happened so we could have had more time with both Ella and Quinn being their "full" selves together.  There was beauty and pain in this read as we can see how the beauty of a listening ear and supportive, comforting words and actions can help ease the pain little by little.  My book crush for Quinn is like a longing to experience his luscious lips!!
